Hi Sian, Holding down the compose key is what you're doing wrong. Just press and release it before typing your compose sequence. It's also worth noting that the compose sequences in Debian work only one order, i.e. "Compose ^ c" works but "Compose c ^" doesn't (unlike at least some versions of Unix which work in either order). -- Cheers, Clive -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
