#7383: Incompatibility with MacroExpress
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
Reporter:  granadajose  |        Type:  defect                     
  Status:  new          |   Component:  pidgin (gtk)               
 Version:  2.5.2        |    Keywords:  accented characters, pidgin
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
 We must use at work an application called Macro Express that makes
 possible creating macros in Windows (i.e., this enable us to trigger a
 sequence of actions just pressing a key).

 We would like to use Pidgin as our messaging programa, but we have noticed
 that Pidgin does not work correctly under Macro Express.

 The issue that we have noticed is the following. If you enable Macro
 Express, it won't be possible to type accented letters in the messaging
 windows. We use a Spanish keyboard, so in order to type accented letters
 (á, é, í, ó, ú), we press the accent key (´) and then the required letter.
 This works in all applications in Windows. However, in Pidgin the accented
 characters do not appear.

 Could you please help us fix this?
