In Gvim I can enter 'e-umlaut' via the keystrokes 'control-k e : ', ie ë .
Kate has a Vi mode, which seems to reproduce Vim fairly well, but there's no sign of 'control-k' or any substitute. KDE System Settings has a menu for setting a compose key, but tests with 'left-control' & 'pause' in Konsole & Kate did nothing. I tried in Kate with Luxi Mono & Courier(IBM), Konsole with LM & Fixed(Misc). I don't have the KDE desktop pkgs installed, but use many apps & it shouldn't make a difference. Does anyone know if & how accented characters cb entered in KDE apps ? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
