description <!--HTML-->Growing up with a Spanish keyboard was not an easy childhood (using Shift+7 (/) to search in vim, or having to type AltGr+[ to actually have an opening bracket), so at some point in my life I switched to an American keyboard.

Then I discovered the Compose Key and my life has been different ever since.
