Use the X11 compose key, it is great!

Put the following in your ~/.Xmodmap:

!! Third example: Change right Control key to Compose key.
!! To do Compose Character, press this key and afterwards two
!! characters (e.g. `a' and `^' to get �).
remove  Control  = Control_R
keysym Control_R = Multi_key
add     Control  = Control_R

Activate it with xmodpmap ~/.Xmodmap

Then you can get � and � with RCTRL a a /RCTRL A A.
