I can't find this in the GNOME help, so I thought I'd try asking here.
I want to be rename a file so it has an a-umlaut (lower case) in the
name.
My LANG is en_GB.UTF-8.
I don't know how to type the accented character.
Hope you have got it working already :) but just for info ...
Afair the quickest way to enter a character that you don't know how to
type is to use the gnome 'Character Map'. You will find a-umlaut
(latin small letter a with diaeresis) in the Latin block. Just copy
the character and paste it into the terminal.
If you are using accented characters a lot then there are better ways
especially for european languages that use them (but I don't use them
often so I don't know).
