<title>Enter special characters</title>

You can enter and view thousands of characters from most of the world’s
 writing systems, even those not found on your keyboard. This page lists
 some different ways you can enter special characters.

<links type="section">
 <title>Methods to enter characters</title>
 </links>

<section id="characters">
 <title>Characters</title>
 The character map application allows you to find and insert unusual
 characters, including emoji, by browsing character categories or searching
 for keywords.

You can launch <app>Characters</app> from the Activities overview.

<section id="compose">
 <title>Compose key</title>
 A compose key is a special key that allows you to press multiple keys
 in a row to get a special character. For example, to type the accented
 letter é, you can press <key>compose</key> then <key>'</key>
 then <key>e</key>.
 Keyboards don’t have specific compose keys. Instead, you can define
 one of the existing keys on your keyboard as a compose key.

<note style="important">
 You need to have <app>Tweaks</app> installed on your computer to
 change this setting.
 <if:if test="action:install" xmlns:if="http://projectmallard.org/if/1.0/">
 <link style="button" href="apt:gnome-tweaks">Install
 <app>Tweaks</app></link>
 </if:if>
 </note>

<steps>
 <title>Define a compose key</title>
 <item>
 Open the <gui xref="shell-introduction#activities">Activities</gui>
 overview and start typing <gui>Tweaks</gui>.
 </item>
 <item>
 Click <gui>Tweaks</gui> to open the application.
 </item>
 <item>
 Click the <gui>Keyboard & Mouse</gui> tab.
 </item>
 <item>
 Click <gui>Disabled</gui> next to the <gui>Compose Key</gui>
 setting.
 </item>
 <item>
 Turn the switch on in the dialog and pick the keyboard shortcut you
 want to use.
 </item>
 <item>
 Tick the checkbox of the key that you want to set as the Compose
 key.
 </item>
 <item>
 Close the dialog.
 </item>
 <item>
 Close the <gui>Tweaks</gui> window.
 </item>
 </steps>

You can type many common characters using the compose key, for
 example:

<list>
 <item>Press <key>compose</key> then <key>'</key> then a letter to
 place an acute accent over that letter, such as é.</item>
 <item>Press <key>compose</key> then <key>`</key> (back tick) then a
 letter to place a grave accent over that letter, such as
 è.</item>
 <item>Press <key>compose</key> then <key>"</key> then a letter to
 place an umlaut over that letter, such as ë.</item>
 <item>Press <key>compose</key> then <key>-</key> then a letter to
 place a macron over that letter, such as ē.</item>
 </list>
 For more compose key sequences, see <link
 href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compose_key#Common_compose_combinations">the
 compose key page on Wikipedia</link>.

<section id="ctrlshiftu">
 <title>Code points</title>

You can enter any Unicode character using only your keyboard with the
 numeric code point of the character. Every character is identified by a
 four-character code point. To find the code point for a character, look it up
 in the <app>Characters</app> application. The code point is the four characters
 after <gui>U+</gui>.

To enter a character by its code point, press
 <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>Shift</key><key>U</key></keyseq>, then type the
 four-character code and press <key>Space</key> or <key>Enter</key>. If you often
 use characters that you can’t easily access with other methods, you might find
 it useful to memorize the code point for those characters so you can enter
 them quickly.

</section>

<section id="layout">
 <title>Keyboard layouts</title>
 You can make your keyboard behave like the keyboard for another language,
 regardless of the letters printed on the keys. You can even easily switch
 between different keyboard layouts using an icon in the top bar. To learn
 how, see <link xref="keyboard-layouts"/>.
 </section>

<section id="im">
 <title>Input methods</title>

An Input Method expands the previous methods by allowing to enter
 characters not only with keyboard but also any input devices. For instance
 you could enter characters with a mouse using a gesture method, or enter
 Japanese characters using a Latin keyboard.

To choose an input method, right-click over a text widget, and in the menu
 <gui>Input Method</gui>, choose an input method you want to use. There is no
 default input method provided, so refer to the input methods documentation to
 see how to use them.
