I just learned something I don't think is general knowledge; if it is,
forgive me.

I've been frustrated in producing French language documents (and even
English documents with words like "vis-a-vis") because I can see the
diacritical marks I need with Keycaps, and there's a cedilla, but I
couldn't figure out how to get them superimposed.  The way to do it
is by hitting option, then the diacritical, then the character.  Thus
to produce "a" with a grave accent, type: Option with `, then "a".
