The "Command" key is (generally) equivalent to the "CTRL" (Control)
key in Windows.

The WinKey by itself launches the Windows start menu; in combination
with other keys, it does, well, various things. See:

You can.

Do the usual "Insert Symbol" voodoo. Find the "è" and click
"Insert", then "Close". Select that character in the document (just
the character itself, not any newlines after it) and copy it to the
clipboard (Ctrl+C). Now click Tools -> AutoCorrect Options. In the
"Replace" box, type "`e". In the "With" box, if it isn't already
there, press Ctrl+V to paste the "è" you previously copied to the
clipboard. Click OK to close the dialog.

Now, every time you type "`e" in your document, it will "AutoCorrect"
to "è".
