Dear Ilya, dear all,

Thanks for your quick and nice answer. So would you recommend me to use, for my XKeysymDB file, 7bit characters (e.g. 1888885 to 188888F) instead of the last positions of allowed ones (i.e. 8bit characters 1FFFFFF5 to 1FFFFFFF) or would recommend other positions like private use area Unicode (for example F8F5 to F8FF) ?

Thanks again and sorry if my question is too "easy".

Best,

Pierre-Luc

i_breve_below etc. are indeed names that I have created and as you rightly
wrote, I should add them to /usr/include/X11/keysymdef.h

  Well, better don't. You would need to recompile at least libX11
after that, and support your forked binary on every
system you use.
  However, you got the simpler way below:



So I assume that I have to create a XKeysymDB file in /usr/share/X11/ that
would be the following:

i_breve_below           :1FFFFFF5
etc.
H_circumf_below         :1FFFFFFF
  Yes, I think it should work. Not checked yet.
  I'm not sure about using 8bit characters in names though. Better
stick to naming it in ascii-7.
  Also, I personally would be a bit afraid  of  taking  specially-
looking  range like the last positions of allowed ones, but it is
definitely legal.
