Comment: Hi, I am trying to 'type' the name of Jose Limon. There is an accent (`) over the "e" and over the "o" (in Limon). Is there some way to insert these accents without creating a space between the letters (e.g. Limo`n)? I've heard that MAC keyboards have some sort of combination of keys to get the desired effect, but is there such a combination for Windows??? Thanks in advance.
