or you can directly use the digraph: `<C-k>Sb` which outputs: `∙`. From
`:he digraph`:

∙ Sb 2219 8729 BULLET OPERATOR

or you could use the compose key feature (using Xorg or some hacks on
OSX/Windows) to use one of your modifier keys to behave like <C-k> but
throughout your system.

For Xorg, OSX and Windows:

Beware that on OSX the compose key does not work with MacVim — and I'm
still trying to figure out a way around), but hopefully you still have
the digraphs — I just wish the digraphs and the compose key schemes
would be the same ☺ ).

Since I have that, I'm having a lot of fun featuring any text I type
with unicode characters like: →, ⇒, •, ☺, ① ② …, — or even the
non-secable space ` `. I've also added a few ones just for the fun:
🍻 , 🐦 or 🖕 :-)

HTH,
