Alternatively, you can create a custom keyboard layout for Linux relatively easily. The text format is relatively legible, but to simplify, you can use a utility such as https://github.com/simos/keyboardlayouteditor . For instance, I find myself using the characters ðþƹāē often for personal reasons, plus åøæ when I was learning Norwegian, so I created a keyboard layout to simplify that. Still doesn't make it a great idea, but if your code's audience is sufficiently constrained, you might find it makes some things more usable.
