I'm wondering what you mean by that. I recall that: 1. If im-config is run after my XKB settings, then my keyboard configuration is broken (probably overridden by im-config's own settings). This means that ibus is activated, right? 2. If after that, I apply my XKB settings again, then things work as usual (even for xterm), possibly except for applications that are currently running (in particular xterm, but this is not related to ibus, as this is an issue I reported in 2012: bug 661295). So, if ibus is activated (see (1)), this would mean that it shouldn't affect xterm, even for most non-ASCII inputs (I recall that I use accented letters, possibly via dead keys, and math symbols: xterm is receiving the Unicode character correctly, so I wonder why it would depend on the code point). Or did you mean that if I want to remap the keyboard with ibus instead of XKB, then it would not work with xterm[*]? [*] in case of testing, bug 661295 needs to be taken into account, i.e. one should test by starting xterm after any config change. -- Vincent Lefèvre <[email protected]> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
