The other option for Windows users that
does not require any 3rd party tools or other hacks
and doesn’t interfere with keyboard shortcuts is to create
your own keyboard layout using Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator.
I took the layout I usually use and added some combining
diacritics, but you can use precomposed characters if
preferred. Another advantage of this solution is that you
might be able to get the IT to deploy your keyboard to the
department.
For people who are using their custom
shortcuts, would they mind sharing which shortcuts they use
for which characters?

If you like to use Unicode-letters for all Windows-apps incl.
Explorer, Firefox etc.:
Write a small exe-file with the (free) AutoHotkey-app
and copy this exe-file into the Autostart-folder of Windows.
It is really very easy: You just write a list assigning
unicode-letters to any keyshortcut you like.

Dear Anya,
For Word on Windows you can define
shortcut keys. Just go to the insert symbols menu and
press "shorcut key" and then define what you want for
letters with diacriticals. I used Alt + the character
for diacritical under the letter and ctrl+ the character
for diacritical above the letter. Alt+ctrl + the
character if there is a diacritical above and below the
character, and a few others for the nasals.
