Yup, I knew what was meant, I just recalled that holli is in germany, and thus probably has a german layout. (For them not in the know, on a german layout, the square brackets are alt-gr+8 and alt-gr+9 respectively (thats right-alt key).. Which is a pain to type often..

I'm not quite sure how it would bother im2 or similar, since the XML used in the tickers doesnt contain any of such.

    That's why I switched to an English layout with some umlauts mapped into it. I need those much more seldomly than I need all that punctuation.

    One of these days I'll read the material available on XKB configuration and make this a proper, publishable X11 keymap.

    As for holli's idea, I quite like the proposition.
