For all the people that don't know how to type umlauts

[czar]

Though I don't always use correct grammar and punctuation I am quite fond of it and I found these keys for us Americans to use umlauts that are used in the Snus language.
ä = Alt 132
Ä = Alt 142
ö = Alt 148
Ö = Alt 153
ü = Alt 129
Ü = Alt 154
ß = Alt 225 (Not really used that often but if you want to say "sheiße!")

I know not all are used regularly or at all but I figured I would post them all because you never know if you might want to use them.

Alt + 138 = è
Alt + 137 = ë
Alt + 136 = ê

That's Rapé ;-)

é sounds like 'hey'
è sounds like 'meh', like the sounds sheep and goats make.

You have to use the number pad. It doesn't work with the top row keys.

It's a bit of a pita, but you should have a function key that'll let you use the regular keyboard as a number pad. They're generally on the JKL side of the keyboard. On my laptop I have to press {Fn-Alt-137(not sure what letters they are)} to get ë

Oh, thanks! I was mistaken.

Alt + 130 = é
Alt + 138 = è
