Just annotations of little "how to's", so I know I can find how to do something I've already done when I need to do it again, in case I don't remember anymore, which is not unlikely. Hopefully they can be useful to others, but I can't guarantee that it will work, or that it won't even make things worse.
[SOLVED] "Really dead" dead keys on KDE apps, within Openbox, at least
For whatever reason I was having this issue for a while now. That means that when trying to type characters such as "äóê" the result would be just "aoe".
Apparently it has something to do with xim/scim/ibus, or evdev, whatever.
Regardless, a "solution" was (to me) to have the following environment variable set:
Which I'm adding to openbox' "environment" file and changing the setting on .bashrc, which had something else. I hope it doesn't mess with other things, I guess it shouldn't, as it's specifically a QT environment variable.
Solution from here, with more informed commentary along the thread:
