I would strongly advise to look into a different approach, using composed
characters. On most systems you can designate one of the keys of the
keyboard to be the "compose" key (I use right-ctrl on mine). Then you can
produce รก by [Compose] + [A] + ['], etc. Most combinations are intuitive
and easily remebered.

Linux systems have this as a standard method, for Windows you may need a
tool like WinCompose.
