To have Key Caps show more options for special characters, press each of these keys or key
combinations:  Option, Shift, Shift-Option, Shift-x, and Option-x.
If you press the Option key, Key Caps outlines lightly the keys that you can use in combination with
letter keys to type letters with accents or other diacritical marks.
Note:  If you see rectangles instead of diacritical marks on some of the pictures of keys in Key Caps, try
pressing Option-x to see the diacritical marks. However, use the Option key (not Option-x) in
combination with the other keys to type letters with diacritical marks.
If you press the Option key at the same time as a key for a specific diacritical mark and then release
both keys, Key Caps outlines in bold the keys for letters that can be typed with that mark. ( You’ll see
that most key combinations for diacritical marks can be used with the Space bar as well as letter keys—
producing the mark without a letter.)
