I am writing a latex document in italian. How can one introduce the italian
accented characters. Would one use something like "C-x 8 RET". What would
be needed for me to insert all accented characters in the italian language
on an emacs line ?

(defun heime-italian()
"Enable it_IT dictionary and italian-prefix."
(setq ispell-local-dictionary "it_IT")
(activate-input-method XXX-prefix))
)
where XXX-prefix could be italian-keyboard, italian-postfix,
italian-alt-postfix, or any of the latin-1 prefixes that
suits you.
Then execute heime-italian in your latex buffer.
Try M-x set-input-method then type TAB to list all
input-methods, or search for "italian" in your emacs
distribution, in these files:
lisp/language/european.el.gz
lisp/leim/quail/latin-alt.el.gz
lisp/leim/quail/latin-post.el.gz
I do that for portuguese/french/spanish, where to type,
e.g. á, type ', then a. Never tried italian.

You can enter most accented characters directly without using
TeX workarounds, i.e., "à", "ò" or "ù" are acceptable in modern
LaTeX documents.

I would like to have a command that does the equivalent of
'M-x set-input-method' that would show me the list of
input methods.

One way is to enter this in the *scratch* buffer
(describe-variable 'input-method-alist)
Place the cursor after the closing parenthesis and type C-u
C-x C-e. Look in the *Help* buffer that opens, or close it
and look in the *scratch* buffer.

Would I actually need to set the input method ?
What do you this of this
(defun heime-multilingu_envir ()
"Display a list of Multilingual Environments."
(interactive)
(set-input-method nil)
(call-interactively 'set-input-method))
