    A misunderstanding.  I meant to use the key sequences as with the X
    compose key, converted to leim.

If we take `.,' as a substitute for the X compose key,
the rest of the sequence could be the same I guess.
If that rest is 2 characters, the total would be 4.

It would also work to use one-character sequences
after `.,' and there would be enough characters to handle
the Latin-1 non-letters.  That might be more convenient.
How about experimenting with them?
