Do you mean you are using the 'setxkb' command to set your keyboard?
whichever way it may be. xkb, scim etc.,
Assume I am a Hindi Desktop user, I am working in gedit and I want to
get the File Menu drop down with the use of mouse, now I am in Hindi
Typing mode, What will be the ideal shortcut way - a Hindi key stroke
or an English key stroke?
Alt + F brings down the File Menu, But this need toggling to English
and then Alt+F is the user is typing Hindi right? But with Hindi
Letter as Short cut, this two step to shortcut is avoided.
The choice to move to english shortcuts was made primarily to tackle
the
problem of inconsistency in key assignment, duplication (in which case
neither shortcut on the same level work) and problems with menu items
comprising all conjuncts (in which case, a minimum of 4 keys come into the
picture).
the vowel or the consonant can alone be considered, instead of the
vowel+consonent.
Secondly, at the time we had also tested various permutations and
combinations using input methods, bn and en shortcuts and found that one
particular set of shortcuts (i do not remember correctly at the moment which
ones) did not work at all if the shortcuts were in bn. I'll try and dig this
bit out if possible.
Please!
