This is quite easy to do.  Make sure your num-lock key is on, hold the ALT
key and type 0241 on the numeric key pad.  you'll get a ñ.  These are what
are called extended ASCII characters.  Not all computers handle them, but
Macs, and PC's running Win3.1 or higher should.  

You can create a table of these by playing with other key combinations.
Most of the ones between 0032 and 0064, and 0128 through 0255 have special
characters on them.
