Type Accented Letters with Accent Codes in Mac OS X
Nov 11, 2009 - 6 Comments
Grave, tilde, acute, circumflex, umlaut… all the fun accent codes that you might need to use. So if you need to type an accented letter in Mac OS X, here’s how.
To get this type of accent over a letter, type this command followed by the letter you want accented:
à – option+`
â – option+i
á – option+e
ä – option+u
ã – option+n
I just used the letter A as an example but you can insert accents over letter. Now my sister in Spanish class can stop pulling her hair out. Buena suerte Trish!
There an extensive list of other language specific characters that you can directly type with a key combination on Mac OS X.
