[BRLTTY] Eurosign

[Jean-Philippe MENGUAL]

Hi,

Oops sorry I think I mixed tables. :( It's the problem because I dont
work with default fr_FR.ttb but a modified table. Anyway the currency
line weren't commented, so I did. And... still nothing.

So let's sum up :)

1. On a terminal:
echo "keycode 254 = EuroSign " | xmodmap -

2. In fr_FR.ttb:
# char \xA4	(1   5  8)  # A4 ⢑ ¤ [CURRENCY SIGN]

char \u20AC	(1   5  8)  # ⢑ € [EURO SIGN]

3. The xbrlapi log:
Couldn't translate keysym 010020AC to keycode.

Isn't because I added the line
char \u20AC (1   5  8)  # ⢑ € [EURO SIGN]

by hand? The keysym isn't the same but still doesn't work.

Well, strange. :)

Regards,


Jean-Philippe MENGUAL
