This does not work in my case. Also interchanging the entries (US first,
then GR) did not work. I mean you can get the accents, but not the
breathing signs. Strangely enough, even calling
LANG=el_GR.UTF-8 xterm
and then doing things in the new xterm, did not work! I don't understand
why. I have the el_GR.UTF-8 locale installed.
I really wonder why... I thought if you had a ~/.XCompose file, your
locale didn't matter (except if you specifically used it in that file,
by doing 'include "%L"'). Maybe it's not used at all?
I think it did not work because I am trying out scim and uim. I must
have been running scim at the time. It seems that when scim is running,
only its own internal version of the compose file is used.
Customisations in ῀/.XCompose do not work at all. With uim, they work.
The Greek entry must of course come second in the ῀/.XCompose file. I do
not know how uim does it.
This also means that when you run scim, the ogonek and horn do not work
as breathing signs even if the locale is el_GR.UTF-8, because scim's
internal copy of the Compose file is only the "common" one.
