[gentoo-user] Terminals that work with "compose" key?

[Grant Edwards]

I noticed that the terminal program I've used for years (aterm)
recently stopped working with the "compose" key (for generating
accented or "foreign" characters, for example).

The compose key still works fine in xjed, emacs, rxvt, mrxvt,
xterm, and dozens of GTK and Qt based apps. But, it doesn't
work in aterm or urxvt.

I'm particularly surprised that it works in rxvt (which has
been abandoned for years), but not in in rxvt-unicode (built
with iso14755 and unicode3 options enabled) which is actively
developed and intended to support internationalization.

Does anybody else have problems with the compose key and aterm
or urxvt?
