It's not a solution to your exact problem, but the correct term for the modifier key is "compose key". This might help you to find answers. The default sequence for Ä on a german layout seems to be "<compose> <shift>-~ a". You can grep the files in /etc/X11/xkb for "macron" (grep -r /etc/X11/xkb/*) to see what key is assigned to this accent in your layout. -- Got Backup? Jabber: Shadowdancer at jabber.fsinf.de
