You hold down the ALt key and, using the numeric keypad only (I think, but

That mehtod is unique to Microsoft products. It doesn't work in Linux.
Dunno 'bout Mac.
The Linux/Unix ”equivalent” should be the Ctrl+Shift+u thing:
Press Ctrl+Shift+u, release the keys, then enter the UNICODE, like
2ab3, then press Enter or space or something, and the ”2ab3” will be
replaced by ”⪳”. Doesn't work in the web browser Opera, which use
another method: UNICODE, then press Ctrl+Shift+x and the UNICODE will
immediately be replaced by the corresponding character.
In Linux/Unix you can also use the Compose key (which key to use for
that can easily be set by the user – I use Caps Lock) to create some
characters. It works like this:
Press the Compose key, release it, then enter two or three characters.
In my case, since I use Caps Lock for Compose, it looks like this:
Caps Lock oc → ©
Caps Lock --. → – (n-dash)
Caps Lock --- → — (m-dash)
Caps Lock oo → °
Caps Lock oa → å
Caps Lock "a → ä
Caps Lock "o → ö
Caps Lock ,c → ç
Caps Lock => ⇒
Caps Lock .. → …
and so on.
