I'm trying to use the multi-language support in Emacs. Specifically, I'm writing a document that contains a.o. Lithuanian and Hungarian text and that should be utf-8 encoded.

I want to use the Latin-4-postfix input method for the Lithuanian text, but here's my problem: the characters are not displayed correctly. If I describe the input method (C-h I RET latin-4-postfix RET), I get the following table:

Code:

             | postfix | examples
 ------------+---------+----------
  acute      |    '    | a' -> á
  circumflex |    ^    | a^ -> â
  diaeresis  |    "    | a" -> ä
  ogonek     |    `    | a` -> ±
  macron     |    -    | a- -> à
  tilde      |    ~    | a~ -> ã
  caron      |    ~    | c~ -> è
  dot        |    ~    | e~ -> ì
  cedilla    |    `    | k` -> ó   g` -> »
  stroke     |    /    | d/ -> ð
  nordic     |    /    | a/ -> å   e/ -> æ   o/ -> ø
  others     |    /    | s/ -> ß   n/ -> ¿   k/ -> ¢


Now, this can't possibly be right, can it? Where I expect an e with a dot (ė), I see an i with grave. An ogonek is also not shown correctly, etc. On the other hand, some characters do seem to be displayed correctly (d with a stroke, e.g.)

Any ideas what the problem is? And the solution? Thanks!
