simbolmudah

An experimental compose key implementation on Windows. Type mathematical symbols, emojis, and Unicode symbols in a few keystrokes.

Features

• Compose key that runs in background
• Unicode codepoint input mode
• Search symbol by its name

Support

This software is tested on Windows 11. There is no guarantee that this will work on Windows 10 or lower. So far the UI is English-only with future plans of translation. For symbol names, we support English, French, Indonesian, and Javanese.
