Now, if someone could tell me how to coax my US keyboard into
properly spelling your name with the ommlauts over the o, I'd love
it, ditto for the beta and copyright signs. I could do that with my
old amiga keyboard. Hint hint...

System -> Preferences -> Keyboard -> Layout Options -> Compose Key
Position. Choose the key you want, or note the current selection.
Close dialog. Type <key>-" (<key>-shift-', a dead key if it works)
and then type "o". In general, the dead key to use is punctuation
that "looks like" the desired accent mark.

Mmm, with my now ancient kde, the choices are us and international, so
I just set it to international, so Jorg is still Jorg, anything else
opens up a requestor menu as kde is intercepting them.

Hi Gene. Try Alt-Gr+Shift+Colon. This is with the US intl on KDE, FC2.
It's a dead key, so you'll need to add the vowel you want to add the
umlaut to.

That doesn't seem to want to work here, Nigel. It takes a second keystroke
after the first o which has no response, but the second o, while still
holding the left alt+left-shift+:, spits out a single uppercase O. And in
kmails composer, that keystroke combo opens the 'options' menu in the
composer.

I miss my old amiga, it had a valid character for almost any keyboard combo
you could think of.

Nigel.
