I have gone through plenty of documents and spent a lot of time trying to configure it, but so far unsuccessfully. I have keyboard with the 3rd level keys (probably ISO_LEVEL3_shift ?)
So when I press Caps Lock and at the same time A, I get a acute (á).



Is it possible to map level 3 shift key to Space instead of Caps Lock?
I imagine it as when it is pressed with the key, then it acts as level 3 shift, otherwise it is just space.
I am not against experimenting but show me, please, at least direction (if it is possible).

          One possibility is to use xcape. I successfully use it for mapping shift to esc. For mapping spacebar to the modifier (from man page):



          sp=Hyper_L
          xmodmap -e "keycode 65 = $sp"
          xmodmap -e "remove mod4 = $sp"
          xmodmap -e "add mod1 = $sp"
          xmodmap -e "keycode any = space"
          xcape -e "$sp=space"


          However, it turned out not to be usable for me, since when I type I tend to press the next key before releasing the space.
