Since I'm from Germany, and my keyboard-layout is in German, I was looking for a way to easily type the special Spanish characters. I did some research, and though there are multiple ways, I found this one the easiest. Maybe this is old new for most of you, you have implemented it different, or you're not on windows. In that case, just disregard my post. I just thought it can't hurt to share it here. This way, I just have to press the right ALT key plus "n" to get "ñ", just like you would press right ALT plus "q" to get the @ character. This is a little step by step guide for the setup, with help from Gemini ;) Quick Guide: How to Install and Use AutoHotkey 1. Installation Go to autohotkey.com and click Download. Choose Download v2.0 (the current standard). Warning, some malware scanner might trigger a false positive, since this is a scripting tool. Run the installer and follow the prompts to complete the setup. 2. Create Your Script Right-click anywhere on your desktop or in a folder. Select New > AutoHotkey Script. Give it a name (e.g., Spanish_Chars.ahk). Right-click the new file and select Edit Script (it will open in Notepad). 3. Add the Code Delete any existing text in the file and paste your shortcuts. For example: ; --- Spanish Special Characters (AltGr Combinations) --- ; Spanish n (ñ / Ñ) <^>!n::Send "ñ" ; AltGr + n <^>!+n::Send "Ñ" ; AltGr + Shift + n ; Inverted Exclamation Mark (¡) <^>!1::Send "¡" ; AltGr + 1 ; Inverted Question Mark (¿) ; Using the "/" or "?" key for international compatibility <^>!/::Send "¿" ; AltGr + / <^>!+?::Send "¿" ; AltGr + Shift + ? (Note: In v2.0, the Send command uses quotes around the characters). 4. Run the Script Save the file and close Notepad. Double-click the script file to run it. You will see a green "H" icon in your System Tray (bottom right corner of your taskbar). This means the script is active. 5. Managing the Script To Stop: Right-click the green "H" icon and select Exit.
