Comment #8 on issue 526 by n.vivia: Dead keys (^`~ etc) don't work in XIM programs
http://code.google.com/p/ibus/issues/detail?id=526

1. My detailed keyboard layout setting is:

xkb_keymap {
        xkb_keycodes  { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)" };
        xkb_types     { include "complete"      };
        xkb_compat    { include "complete+ledscroll(group_lock)"        };
        xkb_symbols   { include
"pc+us(intl)+gr(extended):2+inet(evdev)+group(alt_shift_toggle)+compose(menu)+terminate(ctrl_alt_bksp)"
  };
        xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc104)"     };
};

I have a Greek physical keyboard layout, which is basically en_US qwerty with some
extra stickers for the Greek layout.

2. As you can see, I have mapped my Compose key to my menu (right-click) key. The
combinations I type depend on my .XCompose (or
/usr/share/X11/locale/el_GR.UTF-8/Compose for my el_GR.UTF-8 layout). For example, with my configuration, I have the following combinations: (pasting selected lines
from .XCompose)

<Multi_key> <o> <c> : "©" copyright
<Multi_key> <p> <exclam> : "¶" paragraph
<Multi_key> <equal> <E>                 : "€" EuroSign # EURO SIGN
<Multi_key> <bar> <c>                   : "¢" U00A2 # CENT SIGN

where Multi_key corresponds to Compose.

I type special characters way too often to rely on ibus-table , and I probably need
more than it contains.

Thanks for your interest. If you need any more information, please let me know.
