Of course you can always redefine the keyboard layout. Some layouts
also support the composition of characters.
Or you can of course do something like
ERT HOT_KEY('a', 'ä')
ERT HOT_KEY('A', 'Ä')

Perhaps this shows the need of a compose character function similar to that provided on Minerva - I wonder how many people (like me) found that indespensible at the time!!
