Thanks for all the responses. To summarise:

1. use xemacs mule latin input mode. It doesn't work for me, have to
try and find out why. Maybe I need to include something in my .emacs
file, or maybe I need to unstable version of xemacs.

2. Use iso-accents-mode and iso-accents-customize in xemacs.  I
haven't yet tried all the possible language settings, but it looks
interesting (not sure what language setting is required for µ yet).

C-h f iso-accents-mode lets you see the key combinations.

3. for vim:

4. alternative for (x)emacs.

That works too. Pity you can't preview what buttons do what
(except via ASCII text description).
