I'd tried that in the past, but then it made it horrible to type in normal punctuation. Commas, apostrophes, etc., had to be typed twice, to get them to appear. I use them, a lot, and having to do that was horrid. It's about damn time that a proper international keyboard was brought out, to supersede querty. One where all the usual accents, and extra punctuation, are on their keys (such as where the, usually, useless F keys are). -- tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.17.4-200.fc20.i686 #1 SMP Fri Nov 21 23:59:46 UTC 2014 i686 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
