I'm using an american keyboard with Geany, but have recently been wanting to type in some unicode characters.
[...] After a bit of searching, I found that the common way to get unicode characters (with Gnome anyway) is to hit Shift-Ctrl-U, release, then type in the hex digits representing the unicode code point, then hit Enter. This works nicely on Gedit, and in Firefox too: for example: è, é, ê.
As I told you I didn't forget about this but did some testing. And finally, the solution so very simple ;-). Just unbind Ctrl-Shift-U in the preferences editor, restart Geany and you are done. The restart is necessary because of the menu item mnemonics which are set by default. But after the restart of Geany, Ctrl-Shift-U should work.
Just press Ctrl-Shift-u, then keep Ctrl and Shift pressed down and type u264d and hit Return.
