Description Parag 2009-11-10 22:29:42 UTC 
Can it be possible to add functionality to map conjunct (a character combination of more than one Unicode characters) ? 

I tried
    Key <AE08> { [ U096E, U0936 U094D U0930] };
but this is not working.

Can someone help here fixing this issue?

This is not possible within XKB. And XKB architecture has nothing to do with xkeyboard-config
Comment 2 Daniel Stone 2012-10-31 01:42:45 UTC 
xkbcomp 1.2.5 will support new syntax, which libxkbcommon already supports:
key <AE08> { [ U096E, { U0936, U094D, U0930 } ] };

But due to limitations in X, this won't work in X11.
