New computer, no accents
I've just bought a new computer with Windows 7. I had no trouble with the accents required for Gaelic on my old computer, but I can' t recall how I went about getting them. All I had to do was hit the " tilde" key before a vowel and the vowel would appear with an accent. Any suggestions as to what I can do ? Right now I'm typing 133+ALT to get à, etc, but it's a pain in the butt. I'd appreciate your help.

There's a thread on this question on the Forum FAQs:

Gun Chleoc's modification as explained in post 1 makes it easier on here (see list of items to tick below posting box), but you need other solutions for accent use elsewhere. Suggestions in the thread.
