Hello netters,

I have a small problem with gnu emacs here.

If I want to use emacs for our offices, I must be able to use
accented characters like e-umlaut or c-cedila.

When I used the quote key ( C-q ) together with the compose key sequence
to generate the character, I see the character in octal value between 
two "<>", also constantly typing C-q for each accented character is
not user friendly.

What I'm looking for is a possibility to type the compose key sequence
straight away and that emacs is using a table to find the sequence to
send to the screen. The compose key sequence is generating a value that
is above 127 and is ignored by emacs.

For example: compose e "  --> \353 (Octal value)

With this, it must be possible to type "compose-e-" " and get the 
e-umlaut on the screen. This option can e.g. be selected by
a switch. Typing compose-e-" in the shell will display the character
properly.

Since I'm new to Gnu Emacs and not a lisp programmer, I need your help.
If someone has already made somthing like this to support multiple lanquages
or if someone can tell me how to make this work, please let me know.

The support of lanquages is very important, especially here in Europe.
We have here seperate character sets for each country.

I'm now running Gnu emacs version 18.56 on a Motorola m68030 machine

Thanks in advange

	eric.
