I don't have an answer. I have requirements, though:
* I should be able to get the character by knowing its glyph (shape).
* It should be very low-level and work system-wide, preferably over the
network (I'm typing this over the network).
The solution may require a touch screen and a canvas where I can draw
with my fingers.
The solution may have to be implemented in the keyboard.
Or maybe we'll have to wait for brain-implantable bluetooth tranceivers.
Then, we'd just think of the character and it would appear on the
screen.
