If I want to include a name with a diacritical mark, such as Zoë or François, I either have to open up a character map, or an online table of ASCII codes, to find the characters to cut and paste into my mail.
It would be much easier if there was some sort of drop down box of such characters which I could just grab when I needed them. (FWIW, I mainly use Firefox under Linux.)
What is the easiest way to include such non-English characters in GMail?
