[Solved] œ

Hi
I try to simulate the letter "œ" on a german keyboard, what is the best way to do that? Xmodmap or xbindkeys?

How do I get the keycode for that?

Thanks,
napterk

Just use the unicode codepoint if you are not going to enter it in every third word?

Re: [Solved] œ

One solution could be to enable the compose key. It would then be mapped by default by "<Compose> o e " (see here for the compose key). Xbindkeys is not really made for that.

@Mr.Elendig I do not know which language (s)he want to type, but it is a common character in some language.

I'm from one of those crazy countries and it isn't really used that much.

Thought about the Compose Key, but Mr.Elending is right, I don't use the letter that often. Using that unicode codepoint works with copy and paste?

The compose key prints all manner of other handy symbols...
