Hi.
I've eclipse 3.0 final with one additional plugin xmlbuddy-2.0.5 (light)
running on SunJDK-1.4.2_04 on WinXP with german localization.
Today, all of a sudden my special characters got somewhat mixed up. My
#-key now writes a "$" into the editor, the $-key in turn writes a special
variant of "c" (the one with that strange hook below) and so on. This just
happens inside eclipse (in editfields of dialogs as well as in editors
(java, ant, xml)), but not in any other application.
Perhaps it has something to do with some eclipse-preference changes I made
today (I assigned some unique, new shortcuts to a couple of actions, which
didn't have shortcuts before; also some syntax coloring customization
within xmlbuddy).
If this a known problem or if you suspect it to be a common usage mistake,
please point me to a workaround or help document, as I couldn't find
anything related on Google, in this newsgroup or the xmlbuddy-homepage.

Do you have multiple input languages defined and eventually a hot key?
If so, you might have accidentally hit this combination and your
keyboard no longer maps the selected input language.

Hm, seems like a good idea.
I do have multiple languages defined in WinXP - I've verified, however,
that my german default is still active and in use: So, no problems in
other apps than eclipse.
I'm not aware of multiple input language definitions and related shortcuts
(see also
http://eclipse-tools.sourceforge.net/Keyboard_shortcuts_(3.0_M8).pdf )
within eclipse - a quick search in eclipse Help and Google didn't show me
otherwise. If you know better, please point me to that information or
configuration.
I'm aware, however, of eclipse text-file encoding, which I verified still
has my old setting, that defaults to ISO-8859-1.
BTW, the eclipse error log shows no new entries since over a week and
cannot help this time either.
Thank you for helping to narrow down in that direction.
Cheers,
Joerg.

Note that this is per active application i.e. you can have German for
one app but Eclipse uses another one since you hit the hotkey there.
