          After typing the compose key, type a lower case `x' and up
          to six hexadecimal characters (digits and `a' to `f') fol-
          lowed by a semicolon (if the sequence is less than six dig-
          its long) to type a single rune with the value represented
          by the typed number.

nope, doesn't work. i wanted to enter a literal ascii escape, so i typed
'alt, x, 1, b,' and the b appeared literally before i could enter the
semicolon. ''alt, x, 1,' had no effect. i tried a capital B, with no
change. the implication here is runes whose hex codes contain
non-decimal digits (or at least the hex digit 'b') cannot be entered.

system is 9front on r400, attempting to enter character into rio.

It is also working for me on 9front.
It does not, however, work inside of linux drawterm.

kbdfs is not involved when you use drawterm. /dev/cons, /dev/mouse and
/dev/draw and all that stuff is done by drawterm. (its a fileserver!)

drawterm doesnt provide /dev/kbd. no playing doom for you under drawterm.

rio has a fallback so it can run without a /dev/kbd.

if you want to change compose sequence handling, you'd have to hack drawterm.

i started on this the other day. X11 programming sucks. there's no clear
way how to get key up/down events from X11.
