if you need to #map/#compose some key on your keyboard. Here a cheatsheet. #OpenBSD #FreeBSD #keyboard #X11
1. read #XCompose, #xmodmap and #xev man page
2. create ~/.Xmodmap and ~/.XCompose
3. with xev, select the keycode of your compose key (press the key on the window)
4. map your key in ~/.Xmodmap
keycode ${KEYCODE} = Multi_key
5. load the key map
$ xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap
6. add keys in ~/.XCompose
<Multi_key> <a>: "\xc3\xa5"
<Multi_key> Shift <a>: "\xc3\x85"
7. launch an X app and test
