I just started using the MessagEase keyboard on Android.
It has a nice feature whereby pressing alⓒ gives you α and beⓒ gives you β.
On the other hand I have to press Alt +3B1 or Alt 224 to get α in windows and that’s extremly difficult to remember.
I think it would be great if somebody would write a program that also allows me easy access to such unicode characters on windows.
No; my script only contains the handful of unicode characters I commonly use, and is so idiosyncratic to me that it wouldn’t be of much use to anyone else (mine includes autoreplacements for directories, email addresses I commonly type, etc.). But it’s easy enough to make your own with whatever characters you use—the syntax is simply

Do you have the script that you use on your Github?
