"The new Latin9 nicknamed Latin0 aims to update Latin1 by replacing the less needed symbols ¦¨´¸¼½¾ with forgotten French and Finnish letters and placing the U+20AC Euro sign in the cell =A4 of the former international currency sign ¤." (pardon the odd characters) http://czyborra.com/charsets/iso8859.html Latin1 == iso8859-1 So, in theory use iso8859-15, and then use the Compose key setup of: iso8859-15/Compose:<Multi_key> <C> <equal> : "\244" EuroSign iso8859-15/Compose:<Multi_key> <equal> <C> : "\244" EuroSign iso8859-15/Compose:<Multi_key> <E> <equal> : "\244" EuroSign iso8859-15/Compose:<Multi_key> <e> <equal> : "\244" EuroSign I've not tried this yet, however. The best one is where microsoft put their symbol in 'iso-8859-1'-cp1252-winlatin1, which is in 80, instead of a4 where iso-8859-15 puts it. What does most codepages use? 80 or A4? Does iso-8859-1 even have anything in 80? Is this going to lead to lots of confusion? -- Scott Dier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.ringworld.org/ ...one of the top CBS reporters here in the Twin Cities, came up to me and said, "Governor."
