Re: [m17n-list] IAST-Transliteration Problem with ~Sign

[Christoph Gorgulla]

Dear Kenichi,

all IAST-letters work with IBus expect ~n. Usually if I write a '.' or a ';' then these letters are underlined because the input method recognizes these letters as special input letters, and waits for the next letter until the underline disappears. But if I write ~ then no underline appears at all. ITRANS seems to work fine. 

I use bash. I tried m17n-edit again, and this time it worked better, the menus and the log-file (I don't know why it didn't work before). Here is the content of the log-file:

  [IM] opening (sa IAST) ...  ok

  [IM] creating context (IAST sa) ...  (shift init)

 ok

  [IM] [init] handle `input-focus-in' unhandled

  [IM] [init] handle `ISO_Level3_Shift' unhandled

  [IM] [init] handle `~' submap-found

  [IM] [init] handle `n' submap-found map-actions: insert("ñ")

  [IM] [init] (shift init)

 (commit U+00F1)

  [IM] [init] (produced U+00F1)  [IM] destroying context (IAST sa) ...  done

  [IM] closing (IAST sa) ...  done

Best wishes,

Christoph

Hmm, then the problem is in IBus itself or in ibus-m17n.
With German keyboard, is "~n" the only key sequence that
doesn't work, or all key sequences don't work?  Hown about
some other input methods; e.g. sa-itrans?

Which shell are you using?  With csh (and perhaps tcsh), you
must use ">&" instead "&>".

That's a correct behavior, but

that's strange.  Which menu have you tried?
