So I only just learned this, and so thought I’d pass it along for others, and also, as a handily searchable record for myself, so here’s the list:
- Accent Grave (à): option + ` - followed by the letter
- Accent Aigu (é): option + e - followed by the letter
- Accent Circonflex (ô): option + o - followed by the letter
- Cédille: (ç): option + c
- Tréma (ü): option + u - followed by the letter
Some other useful codes:
- ellipses (…): option + :
- n-dash (–): option + -
- m-dash (—): option + shift + -
generally, if you’re looking for a special code, hold the option key and start pressing around. I’ve tried to find a comprehensive list on the apple support site without luck. So happy typing!
