  If you have a 104-key keyboard (the ones with the three extra Microsoft 
keys), then most distros map the "compose" key to the right "flying window" 
key. Forming accented characters with the compose key is very simple:
<right flying window key> + <,> + <c> = �
<right flying window key> + <~> + <a> = �
etc...
        For the full list of compose sequences, see

        Hope that helps,
