Description Js Lebacq 2002-08-31 10:48:52 UTC

(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           kde
Version:           KDE 3.0.3 
Severity:          wishlist
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

Why not add the possibility to use (and define new) digraph? If you don't know what is it:
http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/vim2html2.pl?page=digraph.txt

It's a simple method to extend the keyboard possibilities (think several latin languages or unicode mathematical symbols sothat they can be use in a simple mail with kmail...).

Thanks for you very good work on the linux desktop:)

The link from the original report no longer points to a document.  Unless the reporter can explain what he means by "digraph", perhaps this bug report should be closed.

Here you go:

It is a method to type special characters used in vim.

Ah... in that case, I suggest that KDE is not the right place to implement this feature.  It's something for the X server.  In fact, X.org already supports this sort of thing via xkb and dead keys.

Yep.
