of a letter and a diacritical mark, are often used. This machine can also display
and print there characters. The diacritical makes available ate ¨, ´, `, ˆ, ˜ and ¸.
Several composite characters can be found on the key tops. Characters such as
á, é, and ü can be entered in the same way as other characters. Before inputting
a composite character as described below, check whether it is already available
