Double nuts about the apostrophe. The <o> <apostrophe> for ó is used
much much more then the sequences starting with <o> <apostrophe> for Ǻ
and ǻ, for which alternative exist.
Please remove:
<Multi_key> <o> <apostrophe> <A> : "Ǻ" U01FA # LATIN CAPITAL LETTER
A WITH RING ABOVE AND ACUTE
and remove:
<Multi_key> <o> <apostrophe> <a> : "ǻ" U01FB # LATIN SMALL LETTER A
WITH RING ABOVE AND ACUTE
because these are also available as:
<Multi_key> <asterisk> <apostrophe> <A> : "Ǻ" U01FA # LATIN CAPITAL
LETTER A WITH RING ABOVE AND ACUTE
and as:
<Multi_key> <asterisk> <apostrophe> <a> : "ǻ" U01FB # LATIN SMALL
LETTER A WITH RING ABOVE AND ACUTE
And at the same time, restore:
<Multi_key> <O> <apostrophe> : "Ó" Oacute # LATIN CAPITAL
LETTER O WITH ACUTE
and restore:
<Multi_key> <o> <apostrophe> : "ó" oacute # LATIN SMALL
LETTER O WITH ACUTE
There has been many requests about mirrored availability of compose key
sequences for often used diacritics with vowels in the past. This is
because, depending on their your native language, people use
diacritic+vowel or the reverse, vowel+diacritic.
Sorry for the late reply but this will prevent many irritations.
Implementing the above mentioned change will make the overall patch from
downstream gtk+ a success.
