Are these Polish characters? It seems the way to get them is to use the
"Alt-Gr" key. I think out of the box it is supposed to be right Alt, but
that has never worked here for some reason. I redefined it in the KDE
keyboard setup thingie (on the Xkb Options tab) as Right Alt + Right Ctrl,
so, to get ł I type Right Alt+Right Ctrl+w, or for capital, add a shift Ł
Tedious. I try to avoid the Alt-Gr thing. If you're forced to use it more
often, perhaps you can assign it to caps lock or something less involved.
As a silly aside (and feel free to respond privately, if you prefer), can I
ask why you use the French layout at all? I use the Spanish layout for both
Spanish and French. Spanish has all the right bits for both languages (ç ê
etc.), but French doesn't have ñ or ¡ and whatnot, so the Spanish layout
seems to be the best bang for the buck.
