-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: RIPEMD160 Hi Mario, Well, this raices certainly a problem for me who is, or will be, hopefully, a linux user from another even more forreign country, namely Sweden. And i can't help but wondring what happens with speech synths that are non-english. In the best case, it will speak english with swedish pronunciation, which i can live with, but in the worst case, it may not function at all... Could this really be the case? and if we go back to the matter of keyboard layouts, has there been attempts at making swedish keyboard maps for Speakup? On 13 Oct 2003 12:05:13 , you typed:: ML> Hi. ML> I am a german new speakup user, and noticed some strange behaviour ML> when using a german (I presume it applies to all non-us layouts) keyboard ML> layout. First of all, the keyhelp (Speakup+F1) menu reports wrong key names ML> when a non-us layout is loaded. I presume this is ML> because keyhelp actually uses scancodes beneath, but has a hardcoded ML> keynames array (speakup_keyhelp.c). Is it perhaps possible to initialize ML> this array based on the currently loaded keymap? ML> OK, so once I learned that I knew I just needed to think of speakup ML> mappings in terms of a US keyboard. Luckily, I nearly know all the keys ML> of a us-layout, so that was just a little weird. But then I tried ML> the goto command (Spk+Ctrl+zero). Naturally, I assumed the indicator ML> for the y-coordinate must be z on my keyboard, since the german layout has ML> y and z swapped. However, that is not so, I can actually use ML> y or x as they are defined in my keymap. It is nice that this works, ML> but it is not consistent with the rest of the system. ML> Any comments? - -- /Krister crisekstrom at bredband.net Get pgp keys here: mailto:crisekstrom at bredband.net?subject=get_pgp_keys -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2-nr2 (Windows XP) iD8DBQE/ioj4ODlJeoMTOQsRAyKbAJ4+UXF6pfLKknzIhWT2OXHbR5BuAQCdELBL tA8FGoVc1725nIFYH92KhgU= =S5R8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
