So with the following command: emacs -Q -font 'dejavu sans mono 12' everything works properly! but this: emacs -Q -font 'bitstream vera sans mono 12' fails as I described before (most importantly, fails to combine characters at all when auto-composition-mode is enabled). This is pretty irritating, as Bitstream Vera Sans Mono seems to be what Emacs uses by default on Debian...! -Miles -- Optimist, n. A proponent of the doctrine that black is white.
