No problems using such characters in Flex: The problem is the lack of input methods. No problem for me: I can input a ← by typing either Alt Gr + 4 (on the numeric keypad) or compose + < + - I have no way to type "colon equals" but to type it as compose + : + = I should simply add one single line to my ~/.XCompose file: <Multi_key> <colon> <equal> : U2254 and restart my text editor. That isn't more difficult than that. (I'm on my phone right now.)
