Subject: Binding key to insert an non-spacing acute accent
Date: Sun, 21 Jan 2024 16:16:55 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87a5oy3bm0.fsf@ucl.ac.uk> (raw)
Hello,
I often mix English with other languages, such as Spanish, that have
accents. I usually use the compose keyboard sequence to enter accented
characters. However, I recently learned that you can insert a
non-spacing accent (e.g. acute) via C-x 8 RET. Lovely!
Now, however, I would love to be able to bind that to a key, e.g. M-'
that I do not use for anything else normally, but I cannot seem to
figure out how. I cannot see a way of definining any elisp to insert a
specific non-spacing character. Any and all suggestions welcome!
Thank you,
eric
