Hi all,

I'm having trouble writing international characters on the console. Currently I use the uk keymap in rc.conf. This doesn't seem to define the "compose" key so I tried defining the compose key as keycode 116 (i.e. the windows key on the right).

Now when I do dumpkeys, I have a definition for compose, and a bunch of definitions for international characters, but when I try doing <rwin><"><U> for example, I just get ". Anyone have any clues? Output from dumpkeys is below.



Code:

ac@soma dumpkeys | grep [Cc]ompose
keycode 116 = Compose         
compose '`' 'A' to 'À'
compose '`' 'a' to 'à'
