Entering accented characters
Different computer operating systems – MacOS X (Apple Macintosh) and Windows (XP, 2000, etc.) – offer differing approaches for entering accented characters.
Techniques are explained below.
Windows PC
Method 1: Alt + key sequence
Make sure the Num Lock key is down. Hold down the Alt key while entering a number sequence on the keypad.
Release the Alt key: you should see the accented character.
Number sequences for specific characters are listed in the character table below.
Method 2: Windows Character Map tool
Use the Windows Character Map tool – a small pop-up accessory that allows you to copy and paste special characters into any application (such as a web browser).
On your Windows PC, access
Start Menu > Programs > Accesories > System Tools > Character Map
Click on and copy the character you need from the Character Map tool. Then, click back in the browser form field and paste the character
(ctrl-v or 'Paste' via browser menu selection).
Apple Macintosh
Method: option + key [+ key]
Hold down the option key while entering the first letter of a sequence (e.g., option ` or option e).
Release the option key and enter the second character of the sequence (e.g., a, e, i, n, o, or u):
you should see the accented character.
Exceptions: A few special characters (ç, ß, ¡) are produced by simply entering option + key. The ¿ character is produced by simultaneously entering 'opt shift ?'
