Thanks very much for the help. I was completely off the mark, as I thought.

The UTF method is good and works but it's like learning a second "Windows alt codes" set. Besides, it's not really efficient.

I prefer the Xorg solution. However I'm facing a little problem. I added Option "XkbOptions" "compose:rwin" to Section "InputDevice". But it's not doing anything. I am supposed to press the right Win key, release it, press ', release it and finally press a, right?

On the other hand, when I type % setxkbmap -option compose:rwin or add it to ~/.xinitrc, the above combination works in any editor, editbox, web browser, etc.

What's going on?
