If you're on Windows, you can use these Alt + Number Pad codes.

http://tlt.its.psu.edu/suggestions/international/accents/codealt.html

It's best to print out just the tables with the codes and then use them whenever you need to, and then you'll memorize it probably within a week or so.

EDIT: That site has the codes but doesn't explain... Basically you want to have your "num lock" on (so you can type with the keypad). Hold ALT, and type in that combination of keys and let go of ALT, and the accented character will pop up.

do you mean ? how to write accents on letters ? such as é /è/ ^¨and such ? The AZERTY layout is a keyboard layout used in France, Belgium and some neighbouring countries. It differs from the QWERTY layout like so:

A and Q are swapped
Z and W are swapped
M is moved from the right of N to the right of L (where colon/semicolon is on a US keyboard)
The digits 0 to 9 are on the same keys, but to be typed the shift key must be pressed. The unshifted positions are used for accented lowercase characters.
The French Windows AZERTY keyboard does not meet standards for the French language. The Imprimerie Nationale recommends the use of accented capitals, but there are no dedicated keys to produce À Ç É È, or French quotation marks «» and ‹› (this gap is filled by text editors that automatically transform "). Also, it has many symbols on the normal and shifted state that are rarely used (e.g. § µ ²), which could be transferred to the AltGr state. On a US keyboard, the key to the left of 1, a ` (grave accent), produces a ~ (tilde) when shifted, (a ¬ on UK keyboards), but on a Belgian AZERTY keyboard, this key produces superscripts ² and ³.

In Quebec the practice of initial capital accents is not generally followed.

The Belgian AZERTY ([1]) was developed from the French AZERTY and some adaptations were made in the 1980s. All letters are the same as on the French keyboard, but some signs (? ! @ - _ + = §) are in different positions.



you have to have an azerty keyboard and not the QWERTY (pronounced /ˈkwərti/) is the most common modern-day keyboard layout on English-language computer and typewriter keyboards. It takes its name from the first six letters seen in the keyboard's top first row of letters. The QWERTY design was patented by Christopher Sholes in 1868 and sold to Remington in 1873, when it first appeared in typewriters.
