I'm using a German keyboard layout on Ubuntu. I always write LaTeX mathematical formula with the Kile editor and the exponent key ^
is not active there. I have to copy-paste it from somewhere else and this is really annoying.
The Kate editor also has the same problem.
How can I use/activate the character ^
which is assigned as a dead key in the German keyboard layout?
I found the way how to do. Inspired by this link (http://askubuntu.com/questions/56560/what-exactly-is-meant-by-eliminate-dead-keys), then one can easily add the German (eliminated dead key) ( here for kde: http://kate-editor.org/2013/10/07/multiple-keyboard-layouts-and-shortcuts/). Then i removed the original German layout as i dont need to switch between two. Now they are not dead key anymore!
