That is not exactly what I want. I am looking for a way to get the same keyboard setup I have been using for years independently of the window manager used: us intl. It is the combination of "pc105" model, "us" layout, and "intl" variant. I do not want to use one compose key together with two more keys every time I need an accented letter. With the us intl keyboard, the accents are dead keys themselves. To get an "á" for instance, I just type "'" followed by "a". The language I most use is Portuguese, which uses accented letters a lot. Typing them with an individual compose key may be much less productive than with the us intl configuration. This us intl setup used to just work with enlightenment, but now it does not work anymore. It would be nice if someone could take a look at it and maybe fix it.
