Quite right, if you plan to use these characters on a regular basis (as
for example if Czech is one of your working languages). If not, the
other two solutions I offered are perfectly valid.
Installing/uninstalling keyboards in Windows is so easy nowadays that
the difficulty of the transition is not a consideration. But the user
does have to know (or discover) which characters are under which keys,
whereas the Character Map and Insert Symbol solutions offer a visual
table from which the desired character can be selected with a minimum of
searching and fumbling.
