emulator). I'm not very keen on compose keys - I find dead
diacriticals (like in X) are usually easier to enter, and I've got
all the dead latin1 accents working on my uk keymap.
I only use compose keys for a bunch of characters like © (copyright
mark) for example. For any other I use dead diacriticals (for example,
to write the accented chars for my mother tongue).
You can also alter the keymap to allow you do ISO 14755 input
(ctrl+shift+hex_digits) - useful for occasional characters, if they
are in your font and you can remember their value.
I have my keymap modified for that, and I use it as a last resort.
If I find myself using AltGr+hex (that's the key combo I use), I usually
put that character in a compose.
Thanks for the info, I'm very happy to hear that it works :)))
