How to insert a slashed o?

[stefano franchi]

Does anyone know LyX has function similar to the various insert-accent
functions, that would insert the Danish "slashed o"? I am trying to write
Kierkegaard's name without resorting to LaTeX codes. The function should
insert
U+00F8 Þ latin small letter o with stroke

The easy way it to cut and paste it into the document. You can slso use
"unicode-insert 00F8" from the minibuffer.

Thanks Richard, that's what I did, eventually (cutting and pasting). I was
just hoping there'd be a function I could bind to a shortcut, but
apparently not.

Cheers,

Yes, you can bind "unicode-insert 00F8".

Ah, of course, silly me. Thanks.


Now, suppose instead I want to add a LFUN to take care of inserting the
slashed o.
(I won't, just trying to understand a bit better how keyboard input is
managed in this case)
I would add the proper constant in FuncCode.h and its proper line and
documentation in LyXAction.cpp. But where does managing the insertion go? I
grepped the accent-acute etcetera functions, but cannot find any place in
the codebase where the insertion actually take place.

The lowercase LFUNs are user-friendly versions. They are converted to
elements of an enum for handling within the code itself, in this case,
LFUN_ACCENT_ACUTE. So that's what you really need to search for. It gets
handled within Text3.cpp. The way it works is that the LFUN itself
mimics a deadkey (this is the call to handleKeyFunc), and then
translateAndInsert does the actual insertion.

Try "unicode-insert 0x00F8".
