+and press the specific key and in the terminal output read the symbol name.
+In the fallowing example for å:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+KeyPress event, serial 41, synthetic NO, window 0x2600001,
+ root 0x15a, subw 0x0, time 106213808, (11,5), root:(359,823),
+ state 0x0, keycode 24 (keysym 0xe5, aring), same_screen YES,
+ XLookupString gives 2 bytes: (c3 a5) "å"
+ XmbLookupString gives 2 bytes: (c3 a5) "å"
+ XFilterEvent returns: False
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The xkb name is aring. In other words, in .spectrwm.conf add:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+bind[program] = MOD+aring
