I am taking a latin class, and I need to be able to type latin on my keyboard. Due to the fact that latin uses all the characters in english, it's been fine so far, but now I've run into a problem.

I need the characters ā, ē, ī, ō, and ū to be easily accessible via the keyboard (e.g. Alt+A to get ā, or something of the such).

How can I do this in Ubuntu?

It looks like you need the dead_macron symbol. An example with the English (US, international with dead keys) keyboard layout:

Typing RightAlt+Shift+3 followed by U results in the ū character.
