* bug#3995: 23.1; incorrect characters from Maltese keyboard on Windows

When I use the Maltese (mt) keyboard on Emacs to enter Maltese
characters, a substitute character is inserted instead.  I can insert
the Maltese characters using the latin-3-postfix input method, but not
directly from the Maltese keyboard.

The Maltese characters are, using the latin-3-postfix key sequence to
describe them: c. g. h/ z. C. G. H/ Z.

When I try to input them, instead I get: c g h z C G H Z

(This was reported 11 years ago, but unfortunately never got a reply at
the time.)

Presumably, a lot of things have changed since you reported this bug.

Are you still seeing this on a modern version of Emacs, such as the
recently released version 27.1?

Thanks in advance.

I had forgotten about this report, as this behaviour has been fixed for
a long time. Thanks.

Thank you for getting back to us.  I'm therefore closing this bug
report.
