Hi Stéphane, If you are on Debian GNU/Linux and using KDE: In KDE you can go to "Control Center > Regional & Accessibility > Keyboard Layout" and click on the "Xkb Options" tab on the right hand side. If you check "Enable xkb options" you can fine-tune the behavior of many keys. Scroll down a bit and you will see "Compose Key Position" with about 5 options. Select one of them, e.g. "Right Win-key is compose" and you can do things like this: press <compose key> then " then a = ä press <compose key> then ' then a = á press <compose key> then / then o = ø press <compose key> then o then a = å press <compose key> then ^ then o = ô press <compose key> then s then s = ß press <compose key> then , then c = ç press <compose key> then ~ then n = ñ press <compose key> then / then c = ¢ etc. I suppose there must be a similar way for other Linux distro's and other DE's like Gnome etc. It works system wide and works fine for me using OOo Writer 2.0. I use it all the time. With thanks to Florian Kulzer, who once explained this to me. Greetings, Manon.
