Arne,

The only issue right is now is add two combined characters:
 0EDC ໝLAO HO NO = 0EAB ຫ 0E99 ນ
 0EDD ໜ LAO HO MO = 0EAB ຫ 0EA1 ມ

For these or any other combined vowel and tonemark that was done through
proriety softwar cannot be done through xkb (such as it has some
limitations as mentioned).

Quote:
For example:
The key 'SHIFT+A' in the proposed standard has the combination U+0EB1 followed by U+0EC9 (LAO VOWEL SIGN MAI KAN + LAO TONE MAI THO). You can get the same result by pressing 'A' (LAO VOWEL SIGN MAI KAN), followed by the key 'H' (LAO TONE MAI THO).

Arne said:
shall I just overwrite the existing Lao layout?
I will submit the new xkb with minor changes and it can be replaced the old one.

regards,
Anousak
