Virtual keyboard
Cube U30GT-H with Debian and XFCE desktop:
The keboard icon on the left bottom corner of the screen shows/hides the virtual keyboard. It is a panel launcher with the following command:
virtual-keyboard -x 40 -toggle -rightalt "aa,cc'ee,ll/nn'oo'ss'zz.xz'"
The -x 40
option moves left edge of the keyboard 40 pixels from the left edge of the screen,
so the keyboard window does not overlap with panel.
-toggle
option causes that keyboard is shown and then hidden, every second touch of the
icon.
The -rightalt
option sets a set of international characters available after press of right Alt.
In this case it is a set of characters for the Polish language.
The argument constists of 3-character sequences. First character is the key, which the character should be
assigned to. Subsequent two characters is the character compose sequence. See for example
Compose key on Wikipedia
