| 17:10.16 | feutetejsd | question for you, wps... |
| 17:10.23 | wps | sure |
| 17:10.42 | feutetejsd | is there some place I can see key combinations for accented characters like the c in Francois, or the e in Andre? |
| 17:11.01 | wps | yes |
| 17:11.32 | wps | Go to the International System Preferences Pane |
| 17:11.51 | wps | Select the Input Menu tab |
| 17:12.13 | wps | check "Keyboard Viewer" to turn it on |
| 17:13.10 | wps | check "Show input menu in menu bar" down at the bottom |
| 17:13.10 | wps | quit System Prefernces |
| 17:13.11 | wps | There should now be a US flag in the apple bar near the clock |
| 17:13.11 | wps | in the menu, you should find "Show Keyboard Viewer" |
| 17:13.12 | wps | selecting that will launch it |
| 17:13.13 | feutetejsd | hmmm, I don't have a Keyboard viewer option....I'm on panther |
| 17:13.19 | feutetejsd | k, I'll see what I can get |
| 17:13.20 | feutetejsd | thanks |
| 17:13.51 | wps | with that up, you can hold done the modifier keys (command/option/control/shift) and see what changes |
| 17:14.15 | feutetejsd | oh wait...there it is |
| 17:14.57 | feutetejsd | so there's no way to just see a list of characters like with the Character Map in Wintendo? |
| 17:15.14 | wps | I am not familiar with the character map |
| 17:15.30 | wps | this isn't listed out in a table, but it does show you all of them |
| 17:15.41 | wps | for example, to get a é |
| 17:15.55 | wps | you type option + e, to get into accent mode |
| 17:16.01 | wps | and then any accent character |
| 17:16.17 | wps | for example, option + e, then a = á |
| 17:16.55 | wps | in keyboard viewer, if you type option + e, then the keyboard will change to show you all of the characters that can be "accented" |
| 17:16.56 | feutetejsd | right, I understand and got the character I needed (so, thanks for the help), but it would be nice to have a list of all non-standard characters to choose from rather than having to guess key combinations |
| 17:17.29 | feutetejsd | there are some that just don't make sense...for example, option-W gets you a Greek sigma, but I would never have guessed that... |
| 17:18.32 | feutetejsd | oh well, I got what I needed |
| 17:18.33 | feutetejsd | thanks |
