yeah- I figured out a way with os x that's like that- only it's alt + i = ^ on top and alt +e =' accent combined with the next letter you type. I think it's going to drive me to do all my accented writing with os x, which is ok.
I love Nelly Furtado's new CD. No sellout type stuff, and she's got Caetano Veloso on it!!! She sings in Portuguese on a few tracks....Highly recommended ese'!!!
thanks-
