Keep in mind that, besides mapping European characters to keys, you can
also map the diacritics to keys. For instance, I use / for acute accent, \
for grave, and " for umlaut. I have put these on the CTRL-SHIFT keys, 53,
43, and 40 respectively. If I want to do a u with an umlaut, I first do
CTRL-SHIFT /, and then type a "u". That way I only need one devoted key
combination for each diacritic, rather than one each for a, o, u, with
unlaut, etc.
