Found the solution that works here with Slackware and Xfce4. In ~/.Xmodmap I
added the line
 	keycode 133 = Multi_key

Opened JabRef and selected the paper with the first author's name Antão. By
pressing/releasing the windoze flag key off the left side of the space bar,
then pressing ~ and a there's now an ã in the JabRef entry, as well as in
this urxvt terminal running alpine. :-)

Thanks, everyone!

Rich
