linked with X11R6? What is the Compose file?
[Last modified: June 95]

Answer: Note: The list of codes below _should_ contain a backslash before
every numeric value. My FAQ maintainence tools have been stripping the
backslash.  Sorry for the confusion...ksall@cen.com.

I've xmodmapped a few accented characters onto my keyboard. They've worked
fine in most every window, but were dead in the Motif applications linked with
X11R6.  My LC_CTYPE has always been set to iso_8859_1, so that was not the
problem.  It turns out that I can activate the keys by patching
$XLOCALEDIR/iso8859-1/Compose to also include the lines listed below.
