Yep. Great isn't it? I don't have an en-gb keyboard, so I use it for the £ symbol. You can edit the characters by the way. |

¡Ah! Gracías, just what I needed to know. Now I'll just have to resist using them where they're not needed

An ingenious way of adding non standard characters to your work. ñ for example. I just clicked on it in the page of characters and then <CTRL>V in this post. It stays in the clipboard until you overwrite it.
Some more ideas in Lifehacker may also be of use. ☃ ☂ |

Oh Ben,
Thank you. I know different different languages but i never try my self in a Spanish. I thought its really different and very tough to learn but after reading your thread i realized that why i can't learn it? I must try my self to learn this things. So i visit that all information you provided and finally decided to learn Spanish through this program. I am really very thankful to you. |

I've just joined the forums and, since I use Linux (Kubuntu 9.04) I thought I'd let any other Linux users know the keys I use to post in Spanish. Here's the list:
Code:
AltGr ; á é í ó ú [ ü ] ñ _ ¿ 1 ¡ z « x » ![]() I hope this all makes sense but if it's not clear, just try it. Any questions, just ask. |

I usually just ignore the accents. My laptop can't do the accents. If i have to use accents i will go to a translator and type a word like satuday for the accented a, morning for n-yay, last for u ect....

I have a Mac. Therefore, typing accents is a cinch. If you have a PC, you can type your text at this site, http://spanish.typeit.org/, and then cut and paste.
Ben's PC solutions are probably more elegant, but they do appear rather daunting. ![]() |

Those Spanish accents have given a lot of frustration myself. I read all the useful ways of doing it. I asked my son to teach me how to write those symbols, still I failed. I have written a lot of ano

Question marks are shift + , and shift + . ¿? Also, from the language and text options, you can enable keyboard viewer which is nice for starting to remember things. It took me forever to get used to the ü. |
