Opt ⌥ + e + e should give é

also in iTerm.

Note, there is a workaround as in this answer https://apple.stackexchange.com/a/440335/286394, which essentially changes the Input Source to US International PC. This allows to type

' + e which gives é

Other Mac apps work properly, just not iTerm. Is there a setting or change I might make to get this working?
