those above are examples of character that i can usually write on my terminal with Alt+E F X, but that in firefox are avoided using Alt because the key is bound for shorcuts (same result if i try inside a page or in the url and search bars)

i've tried with ui.key.menuAccessKey = 0 ui.key.chromeAccess = (different from 4=Alt, i put 6)

but still there is the Alt+D shortcut (for example)

On Linux you can use the Compose key to create all needed characters easily.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compose_key

uhm, seems a bit similar to setxkbmap us_intl

but actually better because with your solution you don't have the "compose" always enabled i was hoping to avoiding three keys combination ok, let's try, xev xmodmap and /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose

thank you
