That's almost what I'm looking for but not quite.  Let's say I want to
type the word "mañana".  The way I tried using the Autoreplace was to
create a n~ to be replaced with ñ.  However, if I type "man~ana", the
n~ doesn't get changed.  I have to type "ma n~ " and then go back to
remove the spaces before typing "ana".  Only then will I get "mañana".

In short, autoreplace works well for complete strings, but not so well
for substrings.

More likely I will have to do something with the keyboard layouts, but
the instructions aren't very clear on that.
