Hey! This script is quite useful, but it wasn't working for codes that contained zeros. I've noticed that the Ctrl+Shift was only necessary while typing the "u" character. Also, the composition stops if the 4th hexadecimal character is a letter and the space character was inserted. The composition doesn't stop (and typing space is needed) when the 4th hexadecimal character is a digit. I've replaced typing space with another Shift keystroke and it works fine now. Here's the updated function:

Update: I noticed letters wouldn't get typed for the code, because Shift was up and the hexadecimals need to be uppercase. I updated the script so that only Ctrl gets released after U and Shift gets released at the end. Works like a charm.

Code:

SendUnicode( UniHex )
{
  ; difference between GTK+ applications and all other Windows applications
  IfWinActive ahk_class gdkWindowToplevel
    SendInput, {Ctrl down}{Shift down}u{Ctrl up}%UniHex%{Shift up}
  Else
    SendInput, {U+%UniHex%}
}

Thanks a lot for this information. I took what the German site said and modified the code for spanish accented characters. Lacks the u with the double dot though.

Code:

CustomGTKSend(Text)
{
   ClipSaved := ClipboardAll
   clipboard := Text
   Send ^v
   Clipboard := ClipSaved
}

#IfWinActive ahk_class gdkWindowToplevel
!a::
CustomGTKSend("á")
return
!e::
CustomGTKSend("é")
return
!i::
CustomGTKSend("í")
return
!o::
CustomGTKSend("ó")
return
!u::
CustomGTKSend("ú")
return
!n::
CustomGTKSend("ñ")
return
!+a::
CustomGTKSend("Á")
return
!+e::
CustomGTKSend("É")
return
!+i::
CustomGTKSend("Í")
return
!+o::
CustomGTKSend("Ó")
return
!+u::
CustomGTKSend("Ú")
return
!+n::
CustomGTKSend("Ñ")
return
!1::
CustomGTKSend("¡")
return
!/::
CustomGTKSend("¿")
return
#IfWinActive


!a::SendInput {ASC 0225}   ;á
!e::SendInput {ASC 0233}   ;é
!i::SendInput {ASC 0237}   ;í
!o::SendInput {ASC 0243}   ;ó
!u::SendInput {ASC 0250}   ;ú
!n::SendInput {ASC 0241}   ;ñ
!+a::SendInput {ASC 0193}   ;Á
!+e::SendInput {ASC 0201}   ;É
!+i::SendInput {ASC 0205}   ;Í
!+o::SendInput {ASC 0211}   ;Ó
!+u::SendInput {ASC 0218}   ;Ú
!+n::SendInput {ASC 0209}   ;Ñ
!1::SendInput {ASC 0161}   ;¡
!/::SendInput {ASC 0191}   ;¿

See this article (in german), in particular the "Update (2009-05-17)" section (contains link to a script).

P.S.
According AHK Help, section "General Remarks", the German umlauts can be sent by AHK on US / EU-Western code-page, but there are problems with other Unicode chars. For that reason I'm using Lexikos' [url]AutoHotkey_L[/url] custom build, and the script below:

Code:

$^!s::  SendUnicode( "0219" )  ; ș
$^!+s:: SendUnicode( "0218" )  ; Ș
$^!t::  SendUnicode( "021B" )  ; ț
$^!+t:: SendUnicode( "021A" )  ; Ț
; …

$!+Left::  SendUnicode( "2190" )  ; ←
$!+Up::    SendUnicode( "2191" )  ; ↑
$!+Right:: SendUnicode( "2192" )  ; →
$!+Down::  SendUnicode( "2193" )  ; ↓

$!+>:: SendUnicode( "2265" )  ; ≥
$!+<:: SendUnicode( "2264" )  ; ≤
; …

SendUnicode( UniHex )
{
  ; difference between GTK+ applications and all other Windows applications
  IfWinActive ahk_class gdkWindowToplevel
    SendInput, {Ctrl down}{Shift down}u%UniHex%{Space}{Shift up}{Ctrl up}
  Else
    SendInput, {U+%UniHex%}
}
