If you means start to looking for problems to fix, you have already identified quite a few. If you mean start looking for how input methods work under the hood, the place to start is quail.el, and please ask questions here if you don't understand something there. AFAIR, most of it is not hard to understand. > I'm thinking that maybe trying to complete the french method so that it includes other characters from latin-1 would be a start ? Yes, definitely a good start. Thanks. Also, I don't see your copyright assignment for Emacs on file. Without it, we will only be able to accept limited contributions from you. Would you like me to send you the assignment form, to start the legal paperwork rolling? TIA
