That's actually four key presses, but at least it's a lot more intuitive than remembering the number 0200! To produce more common accents the ¨ and ´ dead keys are easily accessible on the ' and keys (still with AltGr but they're easy combos!). So if you press the grave accent dead key (which on my layout is on AltGr+\) and then an E you'll get an È. Fear not though, we can get you one just fine.Ī dead key is a key that doesn't produce direct output before it's released by another key press. Oh, so the silly designers actually didn't put the È anywhere. With that you get the 'unified' layout which has much cooler AltGr mappings for all the keys, but the èé key is the same so no problem.
So the èé key is simply kept intact, and whatever way you usually produce the È should still work? It's not on the standard Italian layout as far as I can see so I don't know how you do it.Īre you on Windows? If so, as mentioned there is actually an Italian PKL Colemak layout in my download.
The 'keep local symbols' layout simply changes the keys around to Colemak letter positions, without changing the AltGr mappings for the symbol keys. You don't have to do all that! I couldn't make images without those things at the time I made that huge bunch of locale pics (using the default Linux layout display tool), unfortunately, which can be a bit confusing I guess. Porgy, you should realize that that image is showing several things: The Italian locale layout, my Colemak AltGr mappings on the gray keys, and the AngleWide ergonomic mod which puts the œ\ keys in the middle. Well, I sometimes use a flat screwdriver head to gently pry off the caps – especially on laptop boards.
