I set the keymap to accents. Now, how do I type e.g. an acute accent in

CTRL-K e' ==> é
CTRL-K e` ==> è

I am looking for a Vim only solution i.e. that does not require remapping
the system keyboard.
Thanks for the replies. I stumbled across another method:
set keymap=accents
set iminsert=1
Then in insert mode type <ctrl>k.
Now the digraph `a gives a a grave, 'a gives a a acute and so on. Note that
the digraphs are reversed using this technique.
The problem is shifting back to to regular keying. I don't know how to turn
off accenting other than set iminsert=0
An older solution -- EasyAccents.vim
(http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#EASYACCENTS).
To enable: :EZA
To disable: :EZA (it toggles)
To use: if g:EasyAccents_VowelFirst is 1, then a' , e', e: does the
obvious
If g:EasyAccents_VowelFirst is 0, then 'a, 'e, :e does the obvious

Chip Campbell
