I recently asked about the same question.  This is the answer I hit
upon: run the command 

  xmodmap -e "keysym Menu = Multi_key"

Then use the menu key (has a picture of a menu mid-selection) as a
"compose" key.  So for an accented "e", press compose+', then press
the "e".  Try other combination for other characters.  (Including yen
symbol, US cents symbol, etc.)  For inverted question mark and
inverted exclamation point compose+? followed by ? or compose-!
followed by !.

I put the above line in my /etc/bashrc file, after the line that reads
"screen)".

Good luck,
