Message definition (Tutorials/ComposeKey)

GTK (such as also Firefox) and Gnome applications use (on an Ubuntu system) usually ''SCIM'' as the input method, not ''XIM'' (X Input Method) that relies on the configurations from (X)Compose. Therefore, you will often find that the "a" and "o" macron characters can yield the female/male ordinals "ª" and "º". To still make it work, GTK applications need to be "told" to use XIM instead.
