Typing More Than American English

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As do many of us, I know how to type basic ASCII on a US keyboard
layout.  But what do I do if I want to occasionally type additional
characters from European languages that are based on the Latin
alphabet?

To be specific: I want to type accented vowels, inverted question
marks and exclamation points, an "n" with a tilda over it, maybe even
some of those Scandinavian characters, the double-S the Germans
haven't quite given up, etc.

The US International keyboard does much of that, but not the inverted
question marks and exclamation points.

The United Kingdom layout gives me those (and plenty of other cool
characters) but I can't find basic accented vowels.  (Some keys act a
bit strange, as though they are trying to be dead keys, but I can't
make any accented vowels come out.)

Something like the Spanish or Latin American layouts would do pretty
well, but they are too different from they layout my fingers already
know.

I know how to do all these on a Macintosh, but not on Redhat Linux.
Any suggestions?


Thanks,

-kb, the Kent who might live in the US, but who tries to be more
international than that.
