Such generic questions are always hard to answer.
Yes, some things changed recently, but who knows whether
that is related?

Trying to reproduce and then fix is a good idea.
However, i can't reproduce so far.
Here is what i did:
$ cd /usr/src/usr.bin/tmux/
$ make cleandir
$ make obj
$ make cleandir
$ cvs up -dP
$ make depend
$ make
$ doas make install
$ tmux
And now, inside the tmux window, typing in accented characters
works fine for me, both on the ksh(1) command line and inside vim(1).
Obviously, i don't have a CZ keyboard; but this shouldn't make
the difference, or should it?

I don't have an ~/.xmodmaprc, i don't know what is in yours,
and i have no idea whether that's related.

That's double encoding. Here is information regarding the first
character from uniname(1):
char byte UTF-32 encod name
0 0 00011B C4 9B LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH CARON
If you misinterpret that as U+00C4 U+009B and encode it again,
you get:
char byte UTF-32 encod name
0 0 0000C4 C3 84 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH DIAERESIS
1 2 00009B C2 9B CONTROL SEQUENCE INTRODUCER
But i can't seem to reproduce the double encoding you report...
Am i doing what you suggest?
Yours,
Ingo
