I fail to see it but...

If you get a small window somewhere then it is not Emacs, but your desktop
environment that is intervening. Often the desktop environment will let you
define 'hot' keys that do something special.

As a general suggestion: all modern desktop environments allow the use of
combining keys (compose keys, multi-keys). For example ^ 2 will yield ^ 2
(as it should), but multi-key ^ 2 will yield ² (superscript 2).

Major advantage over Emacs' typopunct.el cs. is that this works in *all*
windows, not only in Emacs.
