I believe you refer to the compose sequences at the end of the file, http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libX11/tree/nls/en_US.UTF-8/Compose.pre (warning, big HTML file), which are
6290 XCOMM 6291 XCOMM Arabic Lam-Alef ligatures 6292 XCOMM 6293 6294 <UFEFB> : "لا" # ARABIC LIGATURE LAM WITH ALEF 6295 <UFEF7> : "لأ" # ARABIC LIGATURE LAM WITH ALEF WITH HAMZA ABOVE 6296 <UFEF9> : "لإ" # ARABIC LIGATURE LAM WITH ALEF WITH HAMZA BELOW 6297 <UFEF5> : "لآ" # ARABIC LIGATURE LAM WITH ALEF WITH MADDA ABOVE
I am interested in adding these sequences to GTK+ IM. Could you please tell me how I can test that these work?
Which Arabic layout/variant shall I activate, what keys I should press and what I am expected to get?
