Package: xkb-data
Version: 0.8-18
Severity: wishlist


It would be nice to change in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/us : (section
"alt-intl"):

key <AE09> { [  9, parenleft,   dead_breve,    dead_breve     ] };
key <AE10> { [  0, parenright,  dead_abovering,dead_abovering ] };

to

key <AE09> { [  9,  parenleft, leftsinglequotemark,  dead_breve ]};
key <AE10> { [  0, parenright, rightsinglequotemark, dead_abovering ] };

(as used in section "intl").

Reason: in the present alt-intl version, both alt-9 and shift-alt-9 
produce dead_breve. This a bit of a waste of key combinations. 

The proposed modification leaves dead_breve and dead_abovering available
with shift-alt, but produces an easy way to type single-quotes by means of
alt. Single-quotes are very useful things to have on a system.

Regards, Jan
