Hey All,

Being the correct person that I am and taking into account that we live in a 
country with diverse cultural heritage I try to always do things the right 
way. Case in point: I have been on IRC a bunch lately. Sebastien (notice 
something wrong) is frequently on there. Well, in Windows I have a tool 
called charmap. I also am pretty savvy with ASCII codes so am constantly 
doing the alt+0233 combination to get a e with an acute accent.

So I am looking for a similar tool or coping mechanism. I found KCharMap, 
which unfortunately is not a part of KDE as of yet. I got the installer and 
attempted to install it (from source I might add).

Well it crapped out at ./configure. I am presented with the following error 
message:

"checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your 
installation and add the correct paths!"

so looking at the INSTALL notes I can plug in the path to tell it where to 
find X includes and X libraries. I do not know where these things live and I 
don't see any command to suppress this dependency. Anyone have any 
suggestions?

Now before you go searching like mad or wracking your brains. Is there a 
console command that will give me the character(s) in question? Something 
like doing the alt+0233 thing?

Just curious. I don't really need the GUI tool, in fact I would prefer a 
console solution if at all possible. Too bad it's not something that is built 
into apps like the windows alt+0233 thing. Or is it?

My searching and Googling has come up with nothing beyond KCharMap.
