I set LOCALE to en_US.UTF-8 and LC_CTYPE to C. Upon login, I run setxkbmap -option compose:lwin. Consequently, I can enter all the UTF-8 characters I need, such as é, ç, and even ™, into most X-based programs I run. When I first set this up, over a year ago, it also worked for xfce4-terminal, but that stopped working earlier this year. (At this point, I can't tell you when exactly, because I just worked around the problem with mousepad as necessary.) Does anyone know the correct fix for this?Happy New Year, and let's all have a great FreeBSD-based 2021! -- George
I guess I should have been a little more specific about the exact failure. I press the Compose key and two more keys, provoking no response at all from xfce4-terminal, but any following keys act normally. I'm pretty sure it all worked under FBSD 11.3, and it started to fail some time after I upgraded to 11.4 (don't quote me on that) and hasn't worked since I upgraded to 12.1. (By the way, the same failure afflicts plain xterm.) -- George
