I added all of the input method handling stuff specifically to support Japanese on Solaris with Motif. For them there is no choice but to use mule. You are correct that non-mule XEmacs should do a better job of supporting Latin-1 properly. That will require a major code reorg that won't happen till 21.1 at the earliest. In the meantime, you could always put Multi_key on a key of its own using xmodmap. Then x-compose.el should work properly. Or simply, (define-key function-key-map [your key sequence here] 'compose-map) should also work. Martin
