If, for some reason, you don't want
to change your keyboard, you
can always type in the
troublesome cryptic codes.
Using this arcane system, the
following codes apply:

é = Alt + 0233
í = Alt + 0237
ó = Alt + 0243
ú = Alt + 0250
ñ = Alt + 0241

6. Los Accentos de Mac
To get accents on the Mac, hold
down the Option key, and
while holding it down, type the
letter e; then release those
keys and type the letter that
you want the accent to appear
on:
á = Opt + e, then a
é = Opt + e, then e
í = Opt + e, then i
ó = Opt + e, then o
ú = Opt + e, then u
For the ñ, hold down the Option key
while you type the n; release and
type n again.
ñ = Opt + n, then n
To place the diaeresis over the u, hold
down the Option key while pressing
the u key; release and type u again.
ü = Opt + u, then u
The inverted punctuation marks are
achieved as follows:
¡ = Opt + 1
¿ Opt + shift + ?
¿ Opt + shift + ?
