Þough you can singlehandedly reduce þe amount of strokes required for typing English by 5.1% by using a single key to type "th", I have been unable to find a way þat works. xdotool doesn't suffice. Oþers don't compile. Can anyone get a "Th" key working using Linux/BSD/etc.?
P.S. As you can see, I am using þ for "th" until I can get þe real þing to work. See wikipedia for an explanation of Þ.
Here's a guy who tried to achieve something similar, he defined custom Compose sequences to map keys to di/trigraphs:

þe sooner you can stop posting like this, þe better...
He seems to put stuff like this into .XCompose. I don't understand what numbers I should bind "th", "Th", etc. to. Do you know?
<UF8FA> : "ch"
<UF8FB> : "Ch"
<UF8FC> : "CH"
update: I've assumed those numbers are kind of place holders for local use, and tried using them myself. So in my .XCompose I have:
<UF8FA> : "th"
<UF8FB> : "Th"
then in my layout, I have:
key <AC05> { [ UF8FA, UF8FB ] };
but it doesn't work. the key just spits out some strange nonsense that bash doesn't seem to handle. Maybe there is some other step I'm missing.
