This is horrible when programming though, because you have to\npress these dead keys twice, just to get the accent. \nSince I don't write a lot of accented letters (only German Umlaute), I wanted to make it so that\nthese keys don't work as dead keys by default.\nOn Linux, there is a keyboard layout called \"US International AltGr Dead Keys\", which switches up\nthe way those keys work in combination with AltGr. If you use this keyboard layout, the accents by\nthemselves appear as a usual character would after one keypress. If you use AltGr in combination\nwith the accent, you'd have a dead key as usual.\n\nNow, having to use Windows sometimes, I was disappointed to not find this keyboard layout there, so\nI made it myself using the [Windows Keyboard Layout Creator](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=22339). \n\nTo install it, simply download the ZIP file, extract it and run `setup.exe`. Note that you'll have\nto log out and back in after installing the layout for it to work properly. You should now see a \"US\nInternational AltGr Deadkeys\" layout in your input selection list.\n\nHave fun!\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Friesinger%2Fus-intl-altgr-dead-keys","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Friesinger%2Fus-intl-altgr-dead-keys","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Friesinger%2Fus-intl-altgr-dead-keys/lists"}
