Thanks a lot. I'd never heard of this feature (but I originally set up my xmodmap settings for control characters more than 10 years ago, so I wonder if the 0x1000abcd feature existed at that time...). Also, as I'm currently on my Mac OS X machine, I've just seen that Apple is using the UABCD form (which seems to be a name for the 0x1000abcd value). > gdk_keyval_to_unicode() also supports this. I've tried mapping to > 0x1000001 and this successfully passes a ^A in xterm, rxvt and GTK apps. > Since this seems to be the appropriate way of doing it, I'm closing this > bug. I confirm that this works with both xterm and gnome-terminal.
