It is part of eev - http://angg.twu.net/#eev http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/eev.html I sometimes give workshops on LaTeX for beginners, and I use Emacs and eev in these workshops. When it comes to the point in which people have to learn how to type unicode characters I prefer to teach the trick that I've shown you - actually I start by its predecessor, that doesn't have a "hash" in its filename; see below - first, http://angg.twu.net/eev-current/eev-compose-hash.el.html http://angg.twu.net/eev-current/eev-compose-hash.el http://angg.twu.net/eev-current/eev-compose.el.html http://angg.twu.net/eev-current/eev-compose.el and only then I teach the basics of input methods. So these "eev-compose"s are meant to be useful enough, simple enough - even for the people who like to understand the source code -, extensible enough, and a good starting point for learning input methods, and just that. I use my eev-composes-hash for everything except Agda code and emojis, but that's irrelevant... Cheers, E. http://angg.twu.net/#eev
