I wish I could find where this is documented, but my google-fu is failing me at the moment. But I do know that the input method changed somewhere around gnome 2.15. To enter a unicode character, just type ctrl+shift+u and then the hex value. (You don't have to keep c-s-u held while entering the hex value.) -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ====================================================================== Reason obeys itself; and ignorance does whatever is dictated to it. -- Thomas Paine
