Thanks.

So, in EventSensor>>processKeyboardEvent: I inserted  a line
Transcript show: evt asString; show: String cr.
(or I can insert that line in
ISO88592InputInterpreter>>nextCharFrom:firstEvt:, the result is the same)

Then, when I type á (=225), I get
#(2 2841355 225 1 0 225 0 0)
#(2 2841355 225 0 0 225 0 0)
#(2 2841506 225 2 0 225 0 0)

When I type acute accent key and then a (=97), first I get
#(2 2862057 180 2 0 0 0 0)

then
#(2 2872015 97 1 0 97 0 0)
#(2 2872015 97 0 0 97 0 0)
#(2 2872015 769 1 0 769 0 0)
#(2 2872015 769 0 0 769 0 0)
#(2 2872191 97 2 0 97 0 0)

and as result I get a?, not á

But what next?

Cheers,
Michal
