I didn=E2=80=99t find the composed sequences, but did find that the chara= cter U+1E08 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER C WITH CEDILLA AND ACUTE is being displayed as the glyph for the character U+013D LATIN CAPITAL LETTER L WITH CARON. U+013D itself also gets that glyph. I have the following in my ~/.emacs: ,----[ excerpt from ~/.emacs ] | (defun jhc-what-font () "" (interactive) | (message "%s" (aref (query-font (font-at (point))) 1))) `---- and that returns my default font, DejaVu Sans Mono, for U+1E08. The font does have the needed glyph, and it does display correctly in other apps. ... Does more searching ... I did find at least one file with a composed sequence. It contains a zero followed by U+0338 COMBINING LONG SOLIDUS OVERLAY. That pair works correctly for me in Emacs. The following line also seems to work, although I cannot say for sure; it does at least look better than it does in my terminal app: ,----[ mhadmamrajamapt.utf8 ] | =E1=80=99=E1=80=9F=E1=80=AC=E1=80=93=E1=80=99=E1=80=B9=E1=80=99=E1=80=9B= =E1=80=AC=E1=80=87=E1=80=AC=E1=80=99=E1=80=B9=E2=80=8C=E1=80=95=E1=80=90 `---- This one is definitely ok: ,----[ macron.utf8.txt ] | m=CC=84 M=CC=84 n=CC=84 N=CC=84 =C4=93 =C4=92 =C5=8D =C5=8C | U+0304 =CC=84 `---- That is all I could find.
