Dear Group, Few days I unsuccesfully try to use lithuanian keyboard in Mathematica under Madrake 7.2 box. Here we use ISO8859-13 encoding for Linux. Unfortunatelly just after setting XkbLayout="lt_b" (no keyboard swich!) I am unable to use Shift+Enter shortcut to send expression for evaluation (menu Kernel/Evaluation/Evaluate Next Input works ok). Mathematica just beeps. I expected that Mathematica will not let me to input lithuanian letters AFTER switching to lt layout, because there is no ISO8859-13.m file. But why it refuses to interpret Shift+Enter before swiching to lt keyboard? Related question. How I can make ISO8859-13.m? I quess that this file maps 8bit ASCII codes to unicode. Windows users do not have this problem, because cp1257 code page is supported by Mathematica. Other X programs like Nirvana editor (nedit) works as expected after keyboard switch. I have put configuration (and encoding) files to http://www.itpa.lt/baryon/help.tar.gz If somebody could take a look I would be extremely thankfull. Please answer also to acus at itpa.lt If I missed other relevant configuration files please let me know.
