Compose key on Mac OS X.
Tested on 10.11.5 (Yosemite) and Karabiner-10.21.0. Feel free to contact me if you have any issues.
- Install Karabiner from https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/
- Run
./install.sh(it saves one copy if overwriting) - Karabiner Preferences window on
Change Keytab enableSend F13 for Right Command (Mac-Ompose) - Restart your user session (log out and in again).
If you want to hack more, have a look into misc directory.
It generally works, but in applications that eat the <F13> key
(like MacVim or iTerm) it does not work. If you have any ready
solutions, please let me know.
