System wide, the problem was my ignorance and unfamiliarity with Linux, in which I am still quite new. Although I had set up languages (Hebrew and Russian), I had not done the same for keyboards. I can now write in all three alphabets in arbitrary applications, including OOo, by clicking on the keyboard applet until the right national flag comes up. I hope that is clear. But this is still not using the CTL facility of OOo. The "Enabled for CTL: is still greyed out (and checked), and I have not been able to find a way to switch between "Western" and CTL languages. It might help me if I knew what action _should_ toggle between the two. Since only two languages are involved, I would have expected the same behavior as that used in other OSes, namely Right<Alt+Shift> goes to CTL and Left<Alt+Shift> goes to "Western". I'm going to post this on an openSuSE forum as well, but without much optimism -- I think there are not many CTL users on that forum. Now that the problem is reduced to one specific to OOo, this venue seems more likely of results. -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
