Indeed, AFAIK Compose only works in X. But you wrote:

and everyone seems to have missed that.
I remember at least one method to enter accented characters in a text
console, it's the same as in Windows:
Keep Alt pressed while entering the decimal code in the numerical
keypad.
For example, Alt + 246 produces ö. It works here (Wheezy).
Codes can be found in the manpage of iso-8859-1.
There are probably better ways, but I don't remember them at the moment.
Good idea. Unfortunately doesn't work here (also Wheezy).
