I work on several systems and OSs, so it's nice to do this entirely
inside Emacs.  There is a facility to do it: `C-x 8 RET' (ucs-insert)
allows completion by UCS name.  So you would say "SUPER<TAB>" to see
that there is a "SUPERSCRIPT DIGIT ONE" and then complete to it.  All
the usual Emacs completion mechanisms apply.  You can of course bind
this call of ucs-insert to a key.

There's also input methods; I have `cyrillic-translit as my
default-input-method (allows /12 to map to ½ for example) but there are
many other input methods to do extra characters.  Then just use M-x
toggle-input-method to switch between the default-input-method and the
normal non-multilingual one.
