LaTex and TeX are typesetting systems they support all kinds of
accented letter by means of special commands I have included them
below. The idea here is that you can type any letter from any keyboard
that has the standard key on it.
• \`{o} produces a grave accent, ò
• \'{o} produces an acute accent, ó
• \^{o} produces a circumflex, ô
• \"{o} produces an umlaut or dieresis, ö
• \H{o} produces a long Hungarian umlaut
• \~{o} produces a tilde, õ
• \c{c} produces a cedilla, ç
• \={o} produces a macron accent (a bar over the letter)
• \b{o} produces a bar under the letter
• \.{o} produces a dot over the letter
• \d{o} produces a dot under the letter
• \u{o} produces a breve over the letter
• \v{o} produces a "v" over the letter
• \t{oo} produces a "tie" (inverted u) over the two letters
