Hi;

I didn't want to hi-jack someone else's thread with a question that is
close to the 'Accented Characters' discussion but not quite the same.

I want to bind some accented keys and symbols to a mnemonic keys using
the left and/or right Super (Windows) key.  I would like them to be
universal; i.e. work in all, or at least most, applications in Linux.

I have and use the compose key (Windows menu key).  I use the
<Ctrl><Shift>+U + number.  But rather than having to remember a set of
unicodes, I would like to bind either the key strokes (<Ctrl><Shift>+U +
number ) or an equivalent command to <Super_L> + <key>.  That way
<Super_L> + < y > would give me ✔ ( a checkmark ) for example.  In over
two years of trying I have not found a way to bind equivalent keystrokes
to what I consider a mnemonic key combination.  In this case, Super_L =
all Bill's modified keys and y = yes = checkmark.

Maybe someone here can tell me how to solve this.  I have tried the
Gnome mailing list and forum two or three times over the last couple of
years and gotten no helpful response.

I am using Fedora Core 6; Gnome 2.16.3; OOo 2.0.4
