Ian, thanks for this. This is very useful and I will give it a try.

As I wrote, I crafted my own file DefaultKeyBinding.dict by hand and it
is working mostly:

{
"~q"  = ("insertText:", "@");
"~a"  = ("insertText:", "á");
"~A"  = ("insertText:", "Á");
"~e"  = ("insertText:", "é");
"~E"  = ("insertText:", "É");
"~i"  = ("insertText:", "í");
"~I"  = ("insertText:", "Í");
"~o"  = ("insertText:", "ó");
"~O"  = ("insertText:", "Ó");
"~u"  = ("insertText:", "ú");   /* ú does not work; use ´u which also gives ú */
"~U"  = ("insertText:", "Ú");
"~?"  = ("insertText:", "¿");
"~!"  = ("insertText:", "¡");
"~<"  = ("insertText:", "«");
"~>"  = ("insertText:", "»");

"~m"  = ("insertText:", "ñ");   /* ñ not working , why? */
"~M"  = ("insertText:", "Ñ");   /* Ñ not working , why? */
}

As said, mostly. Do you have an idea why the above three lines with the
comments /* ... */ are not working? Btw: The Mac has a German keyboard,
if this matters. For the ñ and Ñ I use the keys option+m or option+M,
which works, but is ugly.

Thanks

	matthias
