I'm looking for a way that handles special keyboards and characters
similar to what KeyCaps does in Mac Word

What I do know of is the menu option in MSWord (and PowerPoint, but
not Excel for some frustrating reason that brings up a similar
keyboard map for a specified font and allows you to create keyboard
shortcuts (i.e., by selecting "Insert" > "Symbol"). This week,

I've been helping a Lummi speaker learn how to install and use a font
that can represent the symbols of his language. He's got a PC laptop
owned by his institution, running Windows 2000. We've had great
success in installing the font, and using the keyboard that you can
view by selecting "Insert" > "Symbol".  This is stuff I know how to
do. So now, we've got a bunch of keyboard shortcuts set up for him on
his laptop.

Now, here's my question:

What I'd like to do is to save those shortcuts to disk for him so that
when he gets home, and has to return his laptop, he can use those
keyboard shortcuts on his home computer without having to re-create
them.
Does anyone know how to move such shortcuts between Word on different
PC's.

Also would be curious to know if the same can be done for other apps.
in the Office Suite ... ?
