20、-11:2015Information technology Keyboard layouts for office systems Part 11: Functionality of dead keys and repertoires of characters entered by dead keys 1 Scope Within the general scope described in ISO/IEC 9995-1, this part of ISO/IEC 9995 defines the functionality of dead keys and repertoires of

21、characters entered by dead keys (see Clause 5). This part of ISO/IEC 9995 is primarily intended for word-processing and text-processing applications. 2 Conformance The layout of a keyboard conforms to this part of ISO/IEC 9995 if it contains any dead keys and if every dead key contained in this layo

22、ut works as described in Clause 5. The contents of the Table 1 and Table 2 only need to be complied with for such dead keys which are actually contained in the keyboard layout. 3 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are in

23、dispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

24、les governing keyboard layouts ISO/IEC 10646, Information technology Universal Coded Character Set (UCS) 4 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this part of ISO/IEC 9995, the terms and definitions given in ISO/IEC 9995-1 apply. In addition, the following terms and definitions apply. 4.1 dead ke

25、y key which, when it is actuated, produces (according to the currently active group and level) a specific graphic character but does not change the active position. Note 1 to entry: When a key does not act as a dead key with all possible group/level combinations of a specific keyboard layout, it is

26、called “acting as a dead key” under the precondition that a group/level combination is active where it acts according to the definition of a “dead key” given here.

28、C 10646, which can be entered as a sequence of a combining character (as defined in that standard) and another character, without being the result of a canonical composition of these characters (according to Unicode normalization form C) 5 Functionality of dead keys, and relation to “combining chara

29、cters” as defined in ISO/IEC 10646 The actuation of a dead key selects a graphic character, which, by the fact that the active position is not changed, shares its position with the graphic character entered subsequently. The outcome usually resembles an overlay of the graphic character entered by th

30、e dead key and the one entered by the subsequent keys. By entering sequences of dead keys, the result may be an overlay of more than two graphic characters. This standard identifies in 5.2 and 5.3 characters which represent such results where a physical overlay is not appropriate, by enumerating sin

31、gle characters or special combinations of characters by identifying these by their code points given in ISO/IEC 10646, for such dead keys which are associated with “combining characters” as defined in that standard. NOTE This implies that dead keys usually are associated with diacritical marks, to p

32、roduce an accented character by entering the basic letter subsequently. 5.1 Handling of dead keys in environments using ISO/IEC 10646 NOTE 1 A characteristic of ISO/IEC 10646, unlike e.g. ISO/IEC 6937 , is that combining characters are inserted into the text stream after the basic character to which

33、 they apply, thus reverting the input sequence given by dead keys. In environments using ISO/IEC 10646, the function of dead keys is outlined by the following algorithm: Step 1. If a combining character is entered by a dead key, it is buffered by the keyboard functional unit (KFU; i.e. the responsib

34、le combination of hardware/ firmware/driver software/etc.). Step 2. If a character is entered while the KFU is buffering characters, proceed as follows: Step 2.1 If a backspace” is entered while the KFU is buffering characters and if this backspace” does not cancel the selection of a group or a leve

35、l, the buffered character sequence is dropped, and the buffering stops. Step 2.2 Otherwise, if the combination of the last character previously buffered and the newly entered character is enumerated in Table s 1 and 2 of this st andard, or any additional t able cont ained in the def inition of the k

36、eyboard layout, the last buffered character is replaced by the result character from the list. Step 2.3 Special case: This step only applies if the definition of a keyboard layout specifies a “combining character application character”. If this character is entered, the buffered sequence is output u

37、nchanged (without the “combining character application character” itself), and the buffering stops. NOTE 2 According to ISO/IEC 10646, this means that the buffered combining character, or the sequence of such, is applied to the character entered previously. NOTE 3 It is recommended to select the ful

38、l stop as the “combining character application character”. Step 2.4: Otherwise, the newly entered character is appended to the sequence of buffered characters. Step 3: If the last character in the buffered sequence is no longer a combining character, proceed as follows: Step 3.1: The last character

39、in the buffered character sequence is moved to the beginning of this sequence. Step 3.2: The Unicode normalization form C (canonical composition) is applied to the the buffered sequence. Step 3.3: The resulting character sequence is output, and the buffering stops.2 ISO/IEC 2015 All rights reservedB

40、S ISO/IEC 9995-11:2015ISO/IEC 9995-11:2015(E) 5.2 Combinations of dead keys with the Space character In environments using ISO/IEC 10646, dead keys followed by a space result in the entering of a spacing clone of the combining character associated with the dead key, if such one is defined in ISO/IEC

41、 10646. However, if an “alternative resulting character” is specified in the 3rd column of Table 1, this is to be used rather than the spacing clone specified in the second column of Table 1: if this “alternative resulting character” is not associated to any key directly in the keyboard layout defin

42、ition, or also, if the dead key is specified in the keyboard layout definition by the inclusion of a “common secondary group layout” as defined in ISO/IEC 9995-3. For combining characters where is no such spacing clone, the definition of a keyboard layout may list specific characters which are to be

43、 used instead. Whenever a dead key is entered following by a space where neither ISO/IEC 10646 specifies a spacing clone, nor the definition of the keyboard layout lists a specific character, the result is a space followed by the combining character, according to section 5.1. The following Table 1 l

44、ists all combining characters contained in the character collection MLS (Multilingual Latin Subset) as specified in ISO/IEC 10646, together with the according spacing clones or similar characters if applicable.
