You might also want to map the 'Multi_key' to a key of your keyboard (in my case, RAlt, keycode 113); this would make the key a 'dead key': press it, press the modifier and finally press the letter. Alright, that makes 3 keys for one character; but it allows you to make a lot of other characters.
Examples: Multi_key + ' + e = é Multi_key + ` + e = è Multi_key + , + c = ç but also Multi_key + c + c = č Multi_key + o + u = ů Multi_key + ~ + n = ñ Multi_key + c + t = ť or almost anything you can think of (useful if you want to write in several languages).
