Also, as Peter Dyballa has suggested, I use an international keyboard= =20 layout with =E2=80=9Cdead keys=E2=80=9D. As a matter of fact, I have two keyboard layouts: =C2=ABEnglish (US,= =20 international with dead keys)=C2=BB and =C2=ABSpanish=C2=BB. I prefer= to use the=20 English layout because I have easier access to some symbols (|, \, et= c.)=20 with it. You can change and add keyboard layouts in System Settings -= >=20 Text Entry. Also, I can type accented characters with Alt Gr + vowel. Best Axel
