Way too much geek for me I am afraid. At my age I am lucky if I remember the alphabet.

I'm not exactly young, closer to 60 than 50

That hairdo looks like something I saw on the ground left behind by a bull in the pasture.

No, it isn't, is it.

Years ago when I was a software developer, I worked on a few web apps that needed to render in foreign languages (Spanish and French), and the only way to render those characters from a qwerty keyboard was to use the character codes from the lower half of the ASCII table.

<ALT> + 130 = é
<ALT> + 140 = î
<ALT> + 160 = á

and so on.

Is there an ALT + for an umlaut?

6. Ö : Alt + 0214.
7. Ü : Alt + 0220.

Or you could get a Mac and hold down the letter of choice and it will give you that option along with several others. Use the shift key + letter of choice for upper case. Super easy.

ä
ö
ü
ë
ï
ß this one uses the "s" key.
