nomnex, You can use the compose command and set it up in ~/.bashrc Add a line setxkbmap -option compose:ralt & save it and when you ready to compose you use the [right alt key] + the keys of characters you want to compose. For instance to put a n with a tilde ~, you use [ralt] + ~ then the n and you get ñ , for a an a with an accent á , etc See http://sob.apotheon.org/?p=814 for more details.
