    I thought I'd top you up with accents and cedillas and stuff - you're probably running out, and I don't really need them.

    Here:-

    ? ALT + ' = ¿
    ! ALT + ' = ¡
    c ALT + ' = ç
    n ALT + ' = ñ
    a ALT + ^ = â
    a ALT + 6 = â
    e ALT + ' = é
    e ALT + ` = è
    o ALT + : =ö
    a ALT + e = æ, A ALT + e = Æ
    Thanks, BM, but I'm typing this bollocks on an AZERTY keyboard here in Belgique which has already what I need on it.

    Keeping the discussion topical: Wikipedia says for the famous McEnroe outburst:

    "you cannot be serious"

    But

    "you can not be serious"

    gets 22000 Google hits as well
