Euro and Fonts in X and KDE
I'm trying to get the euro symbol working on my box. I read the
Euro-HOWTO and got it working in the console, but for X the HOWTO is a
little scarce. This is what i've got so far.
I think I got the keyboard configured OK:
$ xmodmap -pk | grep -i euro
26 0x0065 (e) 0x0045 (E) 0x20ac (EuroSign)
But when I type AltGr+e I just get a question mark (in konsole and other
apps). So it seems the font does not have the symbol for 'EuroSign', but
I have the correct fonts available
ii xfonts-100dpi-t 4.1.0-13 100 dpi fonts for X (transcoded from
ii xfonts-75dpi 4.1.0-13 75 dpi fonts for X
ii xfonts-75dpi-tr 4.1.0-13 75 dpi fonts for X (transcoded from
ii xfonts-base 4.1.0-13 standard fonts for X
ii xfonts-base-tra 4.1.0-13 standard fonts for X (transcoded
and my locale is correct (I think).
$ locale
LANG=nl_NL@euro
LC_CTYPE="nl_NL@euro"
LC_NUMERIC="nl_NL@euro"
LC_TIME="nl_NL@euro"
LC_COLLATE="nl_NL@euro"
LC_MONETARY="nl_NL@euro"
LC_MESSAGES="nl_NL@euro"
LC_PAPER="nl_NL@euro"
LC_NAME="nl_NL@euro"
LC_ADDRESS="nl_NL@euro"
LC_TELEPHONE="nl_NL@euro"
LC_MEASUREMENT="nl_NL@euro"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="nl_NL@euro"
LC_ALL=nl_NL@euro
And I have selected in KDE config
Country: NL
Lang: NL
Charset: iso8859-15
Any help would be great...
Thnx,
Tim
