Okay, I was just talking to a chick in Hungary for help in Hungarian and found out a word I was using in Hungarian needs an acute umlaut to have the meaning I want.
Now, as someone who has a USA keyboard on my laptop, I do not have any umlauts to type. After a bit of research, I've found shortcuts to them on the keyboard so I don't have to keep pasting "é" from Google.
So, without further ado, here's the code list for accents for you all. I'll come with foreign language symbols, currencies, and other symbols in other chapters.
NOTE: YOU MUST HOLD DOWN ALT AND HAVE NUM LOCK ON
À - ALT + 0192
È - ALT + 0200
Ì - ALT + 0204
Ò - ALT + 0210
Ù - ALT + 0217
à - ALT + 0224
è - ALT + 0232
ì - ALT + 0236
ò - ALT + 0242
ù - ALT + 0249
Á - ALT + 0193
É - ALT + 0201
Í - ALT + 0205
Ó - ALT + 0211
Ú - ALT + 0218
Ý - ALT + 0221
á - ALT + 0225
é - ALT + 0233
í - ALT + 0237
ó - ALT + 0243
ú - ALT + 0250
ý - ALT + 0253
 - ALT + 0194
Ê - ALT + 0202
Î - ALT + 0206
Ô - ALT + 0212
Û - ALT + 2019
â - ALT + 0226
ê - ALT + 0234
î - ALT + 0238
ô - ALT + 0244
û - ALT + 0251
à - ALT + 0195
Ñ - ALT + 0209
Õ - ALT + 0213
ã - ALT + 0227
ñ - ALT + 0241
õ - ALT + 0245
Ä - ALT + 0196
Ë - ALT + 0203
Ï - ALT + 0207
Ö - ALT + 0214
Ü - ALT + 0220
Ÿ - ALT + 0159
ä - ALT + 0228
ë - ALT + 0235
ï - ALT + 0239
ö - ALT + 0246
ü - ALT + 0252
ÿ - ALT + 0255
Here's an example on how to do it: To type an acute a á (0225), hold down the ALT key, type 0225 on the numeric keypad, then release the ALT key.
I hope this helps people out!
