I like the US-English-International Keyboard setting on Windows / Linux.
Once you set this setting, when you type the first combineable
character, it is not echoed to the screen until the next character is
typed. If the combination is one character, the combined character
will be sent, otherwise the two characters will be sent seperately.
Type a blank after a combineable character to get just the combineable
character.
To combine the AE characters, you have to select a language that
uses that set.
On a Macintosh you type Option-' (that is hold the Option Key and
type ') to get æ and Shift-Option-' (ie: Option-") to get Æ. On a
Windows keyboard I think you can replace the Option with an ALT to
get the same characters. There is also the option in windows to type
the Unicode value with the numeric keyboard or using the Character
Palette.
