Ok, I'm very happy with my bluetooth keyboard and nokia 770. But I´m not an english speaker, and I want to write text in portuguese. The us international layout is not a problem, the issue is about dead keys.
I need chars like ã, õ, ô, ê, é, á, à , ç, ü, ó, í, and so on...
Well, I can do that, I sure. But I want the easy way. Certainly there are chaps more used with the nokia 770 debian linux 3.1 than me, so I ask, what is the better way?
-Hack some X configuration file and enable dead-keys
-xmodmap, perhaps?
-xset770? I saw this command only for key repeat disable.
-Write my own text editor with Glade and Python or C, and trap keys commands by myself (and don´t sleep by months).
-None of above, try this (you tell me).
I tried OS 2006, where in fact there is portuguese support, but the bluetooth keyboard is not supported yet, and I'm waiting for some good soul to compile and pack the bluetooth keyboard application. But as far I remember, there is no support for dead-keys either.
Well, any idea is good.
And by the way, Zinedine Zidane bastard... Portugual and Brazil deserved more... I hope that the italians scores 4 against France.
Alla Vitoria Azzurra!!! Caricat!
