If it's me, I just type them, using the keyboard layout I defined with
Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator. All four of the non-Basic Latin
characters in William's message, as well as the others that Jukka used,
are available as single AltGr keystrokes. The keyboard is totally
compatible with the U.S. English layout, except for the right Alt key
which is now an AltGr. I use it every day, at home and at work.
