Following up on this question from thursday, how do I insert the curly
quotes? I copied them from your email but would like to know how to do
them myself!
The one thing that changed my computer life as a
French speaker trying to type ÉÀŒÇ is a Compose key.
The concept is simple: press Compose, then some
sequence of characters that is recognized as an input
method for a special character. This is much easier
to remember than Unicode code points. Examples:
Compose < " → “
Compose > " → ”
Compose - > → →
Compose = e → €
Compose o c → ©
Compose / = → ≠
Compose / o → ø
Compose ' e → é
Compose o e → œ
Compose o A → Å
Compose ~ n → ñ
Compose , C → Ç
Compose - : → ÷
Compose < < → «
Compose > > → »
Compose space space → non-breakable space
How to configure it depends on your system. In my
experience, it is an extraordinary time saver.
Enjoy <Compose : )>
