> special characters that I can't write using my EN_US keyboard
I set the "menu" key on my en_gb_dvorak keyboard to be compose. I use it most days, whether to type the Ö in a colleague's name, € on a budget, ² in m², → anywhere, or • (or even ①) in a plain text document.
The file /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose contains many definitions, but they don't all work, and it lacks π. I'm not sure where mine are read from.
Whoever wrote it had a sense of humour.
