So you can kind of work and say oh, I need to type in a registered trademark symbol, I can see that it's Option "r." You can also see the special accent characters here, highlighted orange, meaning that you're going to have to type them and then press another key then to put the accent mark over the vowel. Now, you can also hold down Option key and see what different characters you get when you type in there. And you can actually click on letters here and you can type them. This brings up a little mini keyboard that floats above your document. Now let's look at the "Keyboard Viewer" first.

The first is "Show Character Viewer" and the second is "Show Keyboard Viewer." Now if you want to go beyond these characters, go to "System Preferences," and under "Language and Text," "Input Sources," make sure you turn on the "Keyboard and Character Viewer" and that gives you these menu options right here. Now for the French cedilla all you need to do is Option "c." For the Nordic "o ring" you can do Option and then "a" or Option and then "o" for the "o slash." And you can do capitals by doing the shift key as well. And then the umlaut is Option "u" and then any vowel. The tilde only works with the "n," "o," and "a." You get it by using Option "n" and then one of those letters. To get a circumflex use Option "i" and then a vowel. Now the grave accent you can get by using Option and then the key that's just above the Tab, and then typing a vowel. Let's do the same thing with "e." Here's Option "e" and then "e" and you'll see it appear. So for instance "i." And then you'll get that vowel with the accent mark over it. So for instance, for the acute accent mark all you need to do is use Option and then "e" and you'll see it appear and then type any vowel. Now you can type most accept marks without having to go to any sort of special window, or use any kind of special command.
