[[User:Hoaqgio]] uses a custom Python script that can be found at https://github.com/toaq/kanakey. The way it works is that the script always runs in the background (you start it on login) and when you want to type Toaq, you type alt+; followed by the Toaq you want in the format of "Mai4 ji2 suq2 da.", and finally you just type ; alone. Then the script erases what you typed and replaces it with pretty Toaq. Unfortunately it has two pretty inconvenient issues, one of which is that it currently can't show an icon in the system tray to indicate whether the script is in "listening mode" or not (which means you can accidentally put it in listening mode and leave it there for a while) and the other of which is that if you have non-text data on your system clipboard at the time you try to use the script, it will simply crash. [[User:Hoaqgio]] recommends not using this unless you really have no better alternative! | [[User:Hoaqgio]] uses a custom Python script that can be found at https://github.com/toaq/kanakey.

=== US, intl. with dead keys === | |||
If you are on Linux, there is a keyboard option called "US, intl. with dead keys". The way you enter diacritics is the same as the compose key one ''except'' {{Tone|4}} is {{Key|AltGr}} {{Key|Shift}} {{Key|?}} and you don't need to hit the compose key. | |||
