Hallo, all, Could anyone tell me how to do keyboardmapping for conveniently inputting special characters(e.g. German, French, etc) from a standard keyboard server-widely? I think there are two ways: (1)Inputting special character with compound keys(i.e.pressing some modifier and another key in the same time): XChangeKeyboardMapping(dpy, old_code, 1, &new,1); /*Display *dpy; int old_code; KeySym new;*/ But how to map more than one modifier plus another key(e.g. pressing <control><shift> and <a> in the same time) into a special character? (2)How to translate(map) a sequence of keys into a special character? (e.g. pressing <escape>, <a>, <"> one by one, a special character will be inputted.) We have X11R3, Motif1.0 in Suns. Please send me any solutions and suggestions as soon as possible. Thanks a lot in advance.
