[comp.windows.x] XCompose structure

tek@CS.UCLA.EDU (10/11/88)

The XLookupString function in Xlib uses a XCompose structure to allow
"compose key processing". There does not seem to be any explanation of
what this is, let alone any support for it in R2. 

Does anyone want to say what it is and whether there is R3 support for
it?

It is a "hook".  There is no support in R3.  Some individual companies
have done something with it, but there is currently (unfortunately) no
standard definition of how it should work.
