On reading that web-page, I have discovered that the instructions
for KDE cannot be followed because the file
      /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/default
does not exist. What is more, the directory /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d
does not exist. And there is no file called xim in the /etc/X11
tree.

I've tried 'setxkbmap epo' which gives esperanto accented letters
on q,w,x,y,z so that I can no longer use those letters. It was not
long before I executed the command 'setxkbmap gb' to get things
back to normal.

Clearly, I need to set the compose key (to R-Win) so that I have
the usual qwerty alphabet as well as the extra characters.

So what do I do next?
