you can see all possible keyboard combinations in the osx version of "Key Kaps" called keyboard viewer. its located in System Preferences menu, under the "international," pane in the "input menu" check the show input menu in menu bar at the bottom of the pane and check the box next to French or any other languages u type in regularly. finally the "unicode Hex input" (near the bottom of the list has most of the extra roman caracters anyone would use. To see these shortcuts in real time check "keyboard viewer" among input menu choices. theses all show up in the menu bar icon. Choose "Keyboard Viewer" (thats the equivalent to Key Caps) and switch to any language and the keyboard will change accordingly. orange highlighted keys are sticky so when taped it highlights orange until another letter is typed and that letter will be modified accordingly. hold (or click) the option key and u can see what character will be used when combining it with that key same wit he control and shift. This info I know is valid on panther and tiger . get practice and speed up you`re production time ( typed using the spanish ISO (input method))
