Introduction

Well...here are some notes, tricks, some of these are specific to non-english speaking users and therefore not frequently answered in the common documentation. I hope these are useful for you now or sometime in the future.
 

Accents and others in Spanish for Emacs 

The only thing to do is to write in the file /.emacs the following:

StarOffice for Linux

There is a beta version of this Linux suite for free at this site: http://www.stardiv.com/staroffice/ 

At the moment they have available a static version, that is no Motif libraries needed.

 

Accents under Linux

To get accents working on your shell, create the file .inputrc in your home directory containing the following:
set meta-flag on
set output-meta on
set convert-meta off
LC_CTYPE=iso_8859_1
export LC_CTYPE

Would you like, for whatever reason, to change the keyboard mapping on your workstation?
Run this: 
keytbls
xxx.map
where xxx.map is the new map you wish to load.

Let us review a series of commands to easily handle the printer queue.
