Occasionally, we need to input specials characters into documents (characters like é, à, ½, ©). If you are someone that regularly types in foreign languages, you most probably have your keyboard set to that language. For everyone else, this is how you could insert them easily.
Example, since we live in a French province, we often have to type the French version of Montreal.
Start by typing 'Montr' when the é is necessary,
hold one of the
 keys on your keyboard,
tap
the ' (APOSTROPHE), let go of both keys,
then tap the
letter e.
The é would pop in and we would continue typing the al. The end result = Montréal
