Making hotkeys?
Hi,
I want to make hotkeys for the Russian letters а́,э́ ,ы́ ,о́ ,у́ ,я́ ,е́ ,и́ ,ю́. I need them with the acute. I try to use xmodmap and can change the keyboard map. Here I changed 7 to 3 (4 and 5 as well) on the numpad: keycode 79 = KP_3 KP_7 KP_4 KP_5. My problem is that I can not find any keysyms for the Russian letters with acute. Does anyone know them? or Is there a way to combine for example Cyrillic_a with acute in the map? Any ideas? |
Hi
Sooo...,you cannot find them in "/usr/include/X11/keysymdef.h" or wherever you have in your case "keysymdef.h"? |
Those combinations are not in Unicode, because they aren't used in any language's spelling system. You'll have to use the combining acute (U+0301), entered after the letter. That still might leave you with a problem, as the accent will only fit over a lower-case letter, not a capital.
My own solution would be to install Fontforge and edit your font to add the extra characters in the private-use area. Then you could modify the compose key sequence to include these letters, just as Compose+'+e gives é. |
