Accent Composer simplifies the process of typing accented characters and other symbols into Windows programs. It lets you enter any character, in any program, with an easy-to-remember sequence of keystrokes. To create an accented character simply press the designated `Compose` key (the right-hand Alt key by default), then press the desired accent mark followed by the letter. For example, to produce the letter n-tilde (ñ) just press the Compose key followed by `~` and `n`.
