Spanish students - typing with spanish characters

Type Spanish characters without a Spanish keyboard layout

Press and hold down the ALT button, then press the numeric codes given below on the numpad (not the numbers on the top row, the numpad), then release ALT again. If you're on a laptop, use the Fn key.

Punctuation:
ALT + 173 = ¡
ALT + 168 = ¿

Letters:
ALT + 160 = á
ALT + 130 = é
ALT + 161 = í
ALT + 162 = ó
ALT + 163 = ú
ALT + 164 = ñ

Don't forget ü, that's quite useful for few words, but still there.

¡Bueno! Estará útilisimo, gracias.

I use ALT + 130 for my é.

I know most of the french ones by heart... It's to the point where I type slower (in French) on a French keyboard than on an English keyboard.

Alternatively, you can just pull up the character map in any Windows OS. It has a table of all the characters for different fonts and such.
