Summary: Compose key does not work with Nedit5.4RC2 on solaris 5.8

Initial Comment:
Hi,

The compose key (on Sun keyboards) that allows to
create letters with accent (like � or �)
does not work with Nedit 5.4RC2 while it works fine
with Nedit 5.1.1 under solaris 5.8 running Sun CDE.

Regards.

Eric Bouyoux.

This is not fixed on Solaris 9 for me with the 5.5 release.
Adding -DNO_XMIM to the CFLAGS nicely does the trick and I can enter these
funny non-english characters.

This seems to be the second Bug caused by XmIM. I suggest to
reintroduce the -DNO_XMIM and close this.

ROWCOLPATCH should be left out; it worked so far.

The history on this is pretty unclear. Obviously I send in a
patch to swap the two lines (1.4 -> 1.4.2.1), but only to
disable a debug build by default. Why is the debug line in
there anyway? What error was handled by the NO_XMIM? What do
we lose if we bring -DNO_XMIM back in?

Hi, 

To solve the problem I did the following :
- The following line in Makefile.solaris
CFLAGS=-g -I/usr/openwin/include -I/usr/dt/include \
       -DUSE_DIRENT -DROWCOLPATCH -DNO_XMIM

has been uncommented  and the following one

#CFLAGS=-O -I/usr/openwin/include -I/opt/SUNWmotif/include
-DUSE_DIRENT

was commented out.

I use nedit 5.5 rc2 and it works fine.

This is a good catch. Perhaps we should re-enable this,
unless someone knows why NO_XMIM was added here (crash or
someting similar).  My suspicion is some of these weird
crashes may be solved by the widget reorg, and running the
windows like Motif expects...

I ran into the same problem with nedit-5.3 on Solaris 5.9, and 
I also had the same success with the nedit-5.1.1 version.  I 
noticed the Makefile.solaris for both versions had two lines to 
set the CFLAGS with one of the lines commented out.  The 
makefile for 5.1.1 had the second CFLAGS line commented out 
while 5.3 had the first CFLAGS line commented out.  I rebuilt 
5.3 using the same line CFLAGS as 5.1.1 (which, by the way, 
includes the -DNO_XMIM switch) and I was then able to 
compose the accented characters.

I hope this helps.
