Compose key programs

Today I started using my father's laptop instead of my own since mine was pretty much falling pieces. I've been setting up more and stuff on it and I intend to use it for a decently wide variety of things, though not everything I did on my old laptop since he'll need it once every few weeks or so.

So, I've been thinking about getting a compose key program so I can enter non-ASCII letters easily. I currently use FreeCompose on both of my computers, but that program has some limitations (it wont accept some of the letters I would like to use) and I do remember someone else suggesting I use a different one (but I was already so familiar with FreeCompose I stuck with it). So, do you have any suggestions on what I can use to easily type non-ASCII letters/unicode?

If you're on Windows, check out WinCompose. It has the benefit of letting you add new sequences.

Its not technically a Compose Key program, but Ive always just used Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator. Unless they discontinued it and it doesnt work with Windows 10 or something, I have never needed anything else. Has everything in every conlang that I need: āḅčðēḟɣʰīʲkʲłṃŋōṗkʷřšþūṿʷʒəž
