Bug#268120: What are "CTRL+ALT key combinations for creating international characters ... that Windows uses" ?



A specification would be helpful in how this is to be implemented.  The
best I could find was http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode#Input_methods
and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alt_codes; though these are a little
vague as to e.g. how long Alt must be held down, or whether decimal or
hexadecimal, and neither mentions Ctrl key.

(Incidentally, you may also be interested in the Gnome Character Map
 program gucharmap, and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compose_key (useful
 for keyboard entry of common symbols like ‘’“”é槶™⁸⁹«»), and
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_input_methods_for_UNIX_platforms
 for entering extended portions of text in other languages including CJK
 and indic.)

pjrm.
