Heill Ketill!
Here with my keyboard there it isn't a problem just to press <`> immediatly
followed by <a>, <e>, <o>, <u> or <i>. No need to use the <alt gr> key at
all. This might be a special thing on german keyboards, have you ever tried
that?
Regards,
Meldric

And success rest upon the shoulders
Of those kept shadowed until the time of need.
