Tones There are numerous Windows utilities for this, as well as Windows own keyboard mapping utils (somewhat cumbersome to set up).
In my own case I daily use PopChar (full blown utility that also shows the font supported variants) & FrKeys (old XP utility that stiil works and is nicely minimal, very easy to configure.) In TW, for standard use, I tend to use the editor's stamp tool too.
