Fezzik In Paris

Two Americans, three cats, and too many places named "de Gaulle"

I confess that, until very recently, I had been unaware of this Windows feature: the US-international keyboard.

Instead of using the character map like an illiterate savage or having to remember alt-codes like a linux-humping greybeard, it’s possible to add accents, cedillas, and even circumflexes in an idiot-proof fashion. It’s detailed in KB97738.

Goodbye feeling like an idiot for fumbling with the character map, hello not looking like an asshole for omitting accents grave in peoples’ names.
