I thought of that, but that works if you only have a couple of words
with non-standard characters. I write a lot in Swedish and German (among
other languages), both languages with lots of those characters. So I'll
probably loose more time building replacement lists than just making a
row of the most occurring charters in vim and copying that to each
document after opening it. From that row I copy the characters needed
when writing. It is cumbersome, but as a temporary measure it is workable.

I've used both KDE and dpkg-reconfigure to map the compose key to
Capslock and in *all* other applications that works just fine. But
somehow it doesn't in LibreOffice (it does in the version provided by
aptitude).
