I'm currently using FreeBSD 2.1.0 (Oct 10th snapshot) and I've just managed to create a keymap file for the Portuguese keyboard layout (the one I'm using). My problem now is how to write composed characters. I haven't found anything related to it in the OS. For example, when I type "'" followed by "a", I would like to get an "a" with an accent. Is this possible under FreeBSD ? If not, will it ever be ? I would also like to contribute with the portuguese keymap file, which doesn't come with the distribution. To whom should I send it ? Thanks in advance, Joao Cabral.
