Their WizKey program looks like it might solve one of my biggest Windows frustrations after switching from the Mac. If it can reproduce the Mac's way of typing accented characters (eg Cmd-U followed by o to type ö) then I'll be buying it shortly.

- SyneRyder 8y agoI haven't tried that one, I'll add it to the list. So far I've been using AutoHotKey and a script I found somewhere, which mostly works, but is a bit awkward to setup. This looks promising, thanks for the tip!
- tenryuu 8y agoI use the Japanese input method (from the language pack) to solve this. Wish I was joking, but when in hiragana input, you're still able to input words from a Romanji base, and entire English input in full width characters if you start you word with a capital. As the IME has to compensate for having multiple words from the same keystrokes in Japanese, with Roman characters, you get accented characters in the same menu. I don't exactly see this as a great solution, but with my limited use, it surprises me that this is restricted to a CJK input
