Category: None Group: None >Status: Open Priority: 5 Submitted By: RabbiClemens (rabbiclemens) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: accented characters Initial Comment: i've been using gaim for some time now, but i still haven't found a way to input accented characters without copying and pasting them from other applications (i use gaim to talk to buddies in mexico, and accents would be rather useful.) i don't know if this is the right place to request that or not.... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: RabbiClemens (rabbiclemens) Date: 2006-01-11 23:34 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1204662 i'm not really sure that i understand most of what you wrote... haha, sorry. i'm using gaim on a pc with windows xp, i was jsut wondering if there was a patch or certain combination of buttons (like ctrl + ' then a for an accented letter, as in msn or microsoft word) or if there's a way i can set that up. it's not terribly often that i need them, but they'd be a big help, so maybe the control-shift-hexcode would work, though i've no idea what that is. i only need it for spanish, so just the vowels and the accented n is all i need, nothing fancy like chinese. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Luke Schierer (lschiere) Date: 2006-01-11 21:52 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=28833 this depends alot on your environment. some keymaps include a "compose" key, such that the sequence compose a would input an accented a. for chinese or similar environments, an entirely different input method is often needed. less useful for frequent users, control-shift-hexcode will insert the unicode character that is represented by that hex code. what sort of system are you on? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=200235&aid=1401072&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
