      If you want to change the defaults and use other keystrokes to access
accent marks, follow these instructions. You will only need to do this once and
the computer you're working on will remember the keystrokes you've set up.
However, if you move to a different machine, you'll probably have to go through
this set-up process again.
               1. Go to the "Insert" menu and choose "Symbol"
               2. Get "Normal text" and then highlight the character you want
               3. Click on "Shortcut Key"
               4. Type in the keystrokes you want for that character
                      (such as "alt + e" for "é")
               5. Repeat this process for each special character you need
