====== digraph ======

===== Default Keybindings =====

  * ''C-a C-v''

===== Syntax =====

  * ''**digraph** [//preset//]''

===== Description =====

This command prompts the user for a digraph sequence.  The next two
characters typed are looked up in a [[:digraphs|builtin table]] and the resulting
character is inserted in the input stream.  For example, if the user
enters ''%%a"%%'', an a-umlaut will be inserted.  If the first character
entered is a 0 (zero), ''screen'' will treat the following characters (up
to three) as an octal number instead.  If the first two characters entered are "U+", the next four characters are read as a hexadecimal number.

The optional argument //preset// is
treated as user input, thus one can create an "umlaut" key.  For example
the command "''[[commands:bindkey]] ^K digraph '"' ''" enables the user to
generate an a-umlaut by typing ''C-k a''.
