How do I modify a single alt+key character or symbol?
I need to modify a keyboard alternate character. For example, I want get the ♭(Musical Flat Symbol) by pressing Alt + Shift + 3. Currently, I see that Alt+ Key combination creates the ‹ symbol (which I may never use).
I see older posts re: similar needs, but all Solutions imply I must use Character viewer / favorites to grab my ♭ each time I want to insert it or copy and paste repeatedly. Both methods require too many steps each for each insertion. Other posts suggest using an external 'Special Fonts Software Download' to Modify the Alt+ Keys. That sounds potentially dangerous. Is there an actual Simple Apple Solution to this that I'm missing? - Thanks
