One thing I've always admired about the MacOS UI (among a bunch of things I don't like about it) is the keyboard widget, which is always available. Click on it and you get the layout of the keyboard, but it's *dynamic*. Press Shift, Ctrl, Command etc. and the layout shows you exactly what character will be produced (you can also copy it to the clipboard of course). Some time ago I asked on the list if there was anything comparable on Linux, but apparently there isn't. poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
