Re: [Evolution] Re: evolution digest, Vol 1 #1604 - 12 msgs



I suspect that it must be some system setting because I'm not able to
reproduce this in plain text nor html formatting when typing in the
composer...

Hi Ron,

I've tried composing in text mode (Format/HTML off) and there is no
difference for me, the problem still occurs.

Thanks for the response.

When I type a single-quote (apostrophe) character when composing mail,
the first key press gives me nothing, then pressing it again gives me
an acute accent character, like this =B4.   The double-key press makes
it seem like I=B4m in some sort of character composing mode without
wanting to be.

I=B4ve checked my language settings in Evolution and KDE, and checked my
keyboard type.  I=B4m set to American English for all with UTF-8
character encoding.  In fact, as soon as I type the word with the
acute in it, the spell checker wants to fix it, and does it properly
(replaces it to a word with an apostrophe).  Note that there are two
offending words in this paragraph.

I have a Microsoft Natural keyboard and am running an up-to-date
Fedora Core 3 on i686, KDE 3.3 and Evolution 2.0.2.

If anyone can help, please let me know.

The problem may be that you are in Evil HTML Mode:
   Content-Type: text/html; charset=3Dutf-8

In text mode, single-quotes are just that: plain old ASCII.
Here are some examples: ''''''''''''''''''''
