#3817: Calculate on XO laptops always treats langauge key as multiply & divide
button
------------------------------------------+---------------------------------
Reporter: greenfeld | Owner: rwh
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Unspecified by Maintainer | Milestone: Unspecified by Release Team
Component: Calculate | Version: 0.96.x
Severity: Unspecified | Keywords:
Distribution: OLPC | Status_field: Unconfirmed
------------------------------------------+---------------------------------
Calculate-40 on OLPC 12.1.0 os20 always treats the XO's language switch
key as it functions on the English XO keyboard. The unshifted version of
this key inserts a "*" (multiply) operator into the calculation, and the
shifted version a "/" (divide) operator.
This key is defined differently on non-English keyboards. On Brazilian
keyboards the unshifted character is "/" and the shifted character is "?".
In this case attempting to divide using the keyboard always results in
multiplication.
If the key is used as an actual language switch, the "*" and (shifted) "/"
operators still get added to the calculation to be evaluated. This is in
addition to the language being switched.
