Please excuse me for sending an Xfree86 related question to this list. On a US keyboard I'm trying to generate the norwegian characters "ae", "oslash" and "aring". I would like the following mapping
<Alt> + [ --> "ae" <Alt> + | --> "oslash" <Alt> + ] --> "aring" It doesn't necessarily have to be the <Alt> key, however, any sesible two-key combination will do. I have managed to map the norwegian characters to the []\ keys by running a script xmodmap -e 'keysym bracketleft = ae AE bracketleft braceleft' xmodmap -e 'keysym bracketright = aring Aring bracketright braceright' xmodmap -e 'keysym backslash = oslash Ooblique backslash bar' and then map the keys back to normal by running xmodmap -e 'keysym bracketleft = bracketleft braceleft ae AE' xmodmap -e 'keysym bracketright = bracketright braceright aring Aring' xmodmap -e 'keysym backslash = backslash bar oslash Ooblique' This works allright but is a rather primitive solution, as I have to run the script each time I want to change the mappings. Can anyone help me out? By the way, before someone suggests it, using a norwegian keyboard is NOT a solution. After switching to a HappyHacker keyboard last year I have become totally addicted, and will never return to using one of those oversized keyboards again. And the HHKB does not come in norwegian.
