See the documentation [C-h v] for w32-recognize-altgr - Second case: I would like to enter the spanish 'ñ' from my german keyboard via "Alt 164" (on the numeric keypad). How can I enter such "special" characters into an emacs buffer? M-x set-variable <enter> read-quoted-char-radix <enter> 10 <enter> C-q 241 <enter> I'm not sure where the 164 comes from, ñ is at character code 241 in Latin-1, Windows-1252 and Unicode encodings.
