20、tems Part 11: Functionality of dead keys and repertoires of characters entered by dead keys1 ScopeWithin the general scope described in ISO/IEC 9995-1, this part of ISO/IEC 9995 defines the functionality of dead keys and repertoires of characters entered by dead keys (see Clause 5).This part of ISO/

21、IEC 9995 is primarily intended for word-processing and text-processing applications.2 ConformanceThe 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 layout works as described in Clause 5. The contents of the Table 1 and

22、Table 2 only need to be complied with for such dead keys which are actually contained in the keyboard layout.3 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

24、iversal Coded Character Set (UCS)4 Terms and definitionsFor 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.4.1dead keykey which, when it is actuated, produces (according to the currently active

25、 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 called “acting as a dead key” under the precondition that a group/level combin

26、ation is active where it acts according to the definition of a “dead key” given here.Note 2 to entry: The name “dead key” originates in the naming of comparable keys present on mechanical typewriters, which did not cause a horizontal advancement of the carriage as the keys used for typing ordinary l

27、etters did.INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/IEC 9995-11:2015(E) ISO/IEC 2015 All rights reserved 1BS ISO/IEC 9995-11:2015ISO/IEC 9995-11:2015(E)4.2peculiar charactergraphic character listed in ISO/IEC 10646, which can be entered as a sequence of a combining character (as defined in that standard) and anot

28、her 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 characters” as defined in ISO/IEC 10646The actuation of a dead key selects a graphic character, which, by the fac

29、t 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 the dead key and the one entered by the subsequent keys. By entering sequences of dead keys, the result may be

30、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 single characters or special combinations of characters by identifying these by their code points given in ISO/IE

31、C 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 produce an accented character by entering the basic letter subsequently.5.1 Handling of dead keys in environment

32、s using ISO/IEC 10646NOTE 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 they apply, thus reverting the input sequence given by dead keys.In environments using ISO/IEC 10646, the functio

33、n 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 responsible combination of hardware/ firmware/driver software/etc.).Step 2. If a character is entered while the KFU is buffer

34、ing 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 level, the buffered character sequence is dropped, and the buffering stops.Step 2.2 Otherwise, if the combination of the l

35、ast character previously buffered and the newly entered character is enumerated in Tables 1 and 2 of this standard, or any additional table contained in the definition of the keyboard layout, the last buffered character is replaced by the result character from the list.Step 2.3 Special case: This st

36、ep 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 unchanged (without the “combining character application character” itself), and the buffering stops.NOTE 2 According to ISO/IE

37、C 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 full stop as the “combining character application character”.Step 2.4: Otherwise, the newly entered character is appended to the s

38、equence 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 in the buffered character sequence is moved to the beginning of this sequence.Step 3.2: The Unicode normalization form C (canonica

39、l 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 reservedBS ISO/IEC 9995-11:2015ISO/IEC 9995-11:2015(E)5.2 Combinations of dead keys with the Space characterIn environments using ISO/IEC 106

40、46, 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 10646.However, if an “alternative resulting character” is specified in the 3rd column of Table 1, this is to be used rather than the

41、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 definition, or also, if the dead key is specified in the keyboard layout definition by the inclusion of a “common secondary group layout” as

42、 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 used instead.Whenever a dead key is entered following by a space where neither ISO/IEC 10646 specifies a spacing clone, nor the definit

43、ion 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 lists all combining characters contained in the character collection MLS (Multilingual Latin Subset) as specified in ISO/IEC 10646, togethe
