Well it's not a big problem. That's why I used minor severity. But I see no reason for such behaviour. It is annoying, cause we've got plenty of common used words that has -ów suffix. To get this suffix we have to push alt+o, then release alt and push w. Since alt+w gives as the same as alt+l it often happens that I see wrongly written words with -ół. And I don't understand what's the problem with removing it from Polish layout? And why these keys are active at all? Is it because of compatibility with other latin languages? So people from Hungary have working alt+l if they don't use it for example? Thanks for your quick response. regards fEnIo -- ,''`.
