special character (like ü, etc) with windows key?



Hello,

Now I can type ` + e and it give è, or ~ + n for ñ. But if I want to type 'cd ~' (go to my home directory) I have to type cd + spacebar + ~ + spacebar.

Is it possible to make it so, that I can type cd + spacebar + ~ for 'cd ~' and something like 'hold down the windows (key with the MS Windows logo) or control key' and type ~ + n for ñ

And of course the Euro sign, now by right alt + e, I preffer if that could also the windows key + e or something like that.


In my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 is currently:

Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
Option "XkbLayout" "us_intl"
Option "LeftAlt" "Meta"
Option "RightAlt" "ModeShift"
Option "RightCtl" "Compose"

I'm using Debian 3.0

If possible, please give and example for the configuration file, or an url to a very good tutorial.

Alfred Munnikes,
and if possible, cc me the answer.
