Hi all Well, with all the heat of 2.4 release (spreading throught the entire Europe and UK, saving Ireland) - just get a bit of fresh air thinking about non-relevant little 2.6 problems. So, there is gswitchit. After some discussions here it was desided that mostly politically correct default mode for the applet would be to show a couple of letters to indicate the current layout (sure, with keeping the ability to show the flags, but this does not matter here). Currently I am stuck with the problem WHICH 2 letters gswitchit should show. First I thought about 2 capitalized letters of the country code (ISO standard). But this would not be politically correct for, say, Indian states (like Bengali). Then I thought about the 2-letter language code. This is a bit better - but some layouts are still undistinguisable (like us,en_US,us_intl,gb). So I am a bit stuck at this point. Technically, I see no problem with any solution - but I just don't want to miss. This will go not into gswitchit but into XFree (through xfree86.xml) - so this should be well-thought solution. Just for anyone interested - I attach the full list of layouts in XFree 4.3.0 (don't be afraid, only 370 bytes:). And I would be grateful to get the list of 2-letter strings for the applet. Another relevant problem is the applet size. Since 2 letter strings can have different widths - the applet size will be changing with the layout changes. This is not a big trouble (the difference is usually a couple of pixels) - but still a bit of UI unpolishness. Actually, I noticed same thing in the clock applet - its size changes with the time:) Any ideas on this would be welcome as well. -- Sergey
