Thanks for the tip -- did not know of this 'backwards' way of using an
input method:
paste a char and then inquire how to input it

There's one thing I dont find -- the input method definition.
With a function or a mode or a key we can ask and be taken to the definition(s).
With an input method I cant seem to find a way
