I have a set of decals on the corresponding keys. ? and ? are to the right of L on the same key as the colon and semi-colon. Your "umlaut" and
accent are to the right of P where the { and [ are found. The upside down exclamation and question marks are on the top far right + and = key. You
can order the decals online. I forget exactly where I bought them but I'd bet they are available for several languages and you can probably find what
you want by googling around. This is probably not very necessary for someone who only occasionally needs to be sure that that a?o and ano don't get
confused, but as maybe 98% of my "clients" are monolingual Spanish speakers, I do a lot of stuff in Spanish. Switching to a Spanish keyboard makes
lengthy texts a lot easier than dealing with that Alt-Ctrl bidness. And yes, I ain't perfect and still screw up now and then.
BTW, I once asked an Irish friend about the equivalent of "Ma?ana" in Gaelic. "Ah my amigo," he replied, " I'm afraid we have no word to express such
a sense of urgency."
All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.

Here's a couple of links that might help.
Keyboard Maps
Keyboard Stickers
Like Oso, I have my keyboard set up to toggle between EN(english) and ES(spanish). But not because I'm fluent in either; I'm just trying to learn
both.

Thanks, I have learned a lot and taped the alt keys to my keyboard. Now I have to learn more Spanish before using them, but I will start ma?ana.

BTW, if I didn't mention before, the accent and di?resis operate on the "dead key" principal - you hit the accent first- nothing happens- then you hit
the vowel you want and it appears with the accent over it.
