Accent Hold

by jg__

Type accented and special characters the macOS way — without a daemon or root. Press a configurable shortcut, type a base letter (e, a, c, o, n …), then pick the accented variant you want (é è ê ë, ç, ñ, ô …) from a clean popup. The chosen character is injected wherever your cursor is, including text fields, editors and the terminal. A built-in preferences panel lets you customize the shortcut, the popup delay, the character table and the keyboard layouts the extension is active on.
