I didnot understand your mail and I could not do it also, For example
for character A


How did you enter that 'A'?

Maybe what you want to do is enter arbitrary characters according
to some codepage?


Is this what you want to do?
<http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/input-keyboard.html#shortcuts>
Unicode entry shortcuts

"Note that you cannot use Shift-Ctrl-A-thru-F or Shift-Ctrl-0-thru-9 for your own purposes, as these combinations are used to enter unicode characters in text fields."

Alternatively: Applications|Accessories|Character map
