Today I found out Microsoft PowerToys has added a new feature called QuickAccent that lets you add diacritic marks and other special characters related to a letter you click. For example, you can add e-tilde (é) for Spanish languages by clicking the letter ‘e’ then quickly holding down a trigger key to pop up the diacritic selection dialog on screen. When you open it, it looks like the screen below. Just click left/right arrows to select your character.


Choose your character!
