Indeed, AFAIK Compose only works in X. But you wrote: > I want to enter accented characters in a text console (not in X!) and everyone seems to have missed that. I remember at least one method to enter accented characters in a text console, it's the same as in Windows: Keep Alt pressed while entering the decimal code in the numerical keypad. For example, Alt + 246 produces ö. It works here (Wheezy). Codes can be found in the manpage of iso-8859-1. There are probably better ways, but I don't remember them at the moment. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
