How do I insert enye character.

Asked by Nick Bikkal

In the character map I use in Ubuntu I find Ñ but I don't find the small equivalent as used in Spanish. I have found ńňʼn but not the one I'm looking for.

Thank you for your help.

If this is what you are looking for - ñ - then proceed this way:

Go to System, Preferences, Keyboard (not Keyboard Shortcuts), open the Layouts tab and then Layout Options.
Find "Compose key position" and select a key. Close the displays.

To create the ñ character, press

1. the control key
2. ~ (shift+~)
3. n

Similarly you can create ä, ö, ü, ë, á, à, ô, etcetera.

Can you help with this problem?
