[feature request] shortcut keys for special charachters
I'm using the keyboard shortcuts whenever possible. The only time I need to use the mouse is when adding a letter that does not exist on the US keyboard.
Could you add a shortcut (or keys combination) for each special character?
e.g. c,, = ç (typing c with two commas right after it)
e^^ = ê
e:: = ë
a~~ = ã
n~~ = ñ
a** = å
o// = ø (I'm preparing for Danish!)
etc.
10x.

If you have an apple product you can hold down the letter (which will create a pop up screen with a series of letter variations) then press a number to get certain letters!

For windows, the only thing that I ever did was use the ALT key. All you have to do is press ALT and then a series of numbers to get certain letters. Á, for example, can be accessed by ALT + 0193. The whole list of codes is available here: http://symbolcodes.tlt.psu.edu/accents/codealt.html
