Resent to the list because of a server bounce. Sorry for the dupe, Adrien.

There's a checkbox in System Preferences>Keyboard>Input Sources to show input 
menu in the menu bar. Turn that on: It includes two items, Show Emoji & 
Symbols, that actually gives access to all code points, and Show Keyboard 
Viewer, which shows what keys do what; it's interactive so if you hold down 
option it shows what characters it makes available.

With the US English keyboard there are some combining keys, circled in orange: 
`, e, u, i, and n for accent aigue, accent grave, dieresis, circumflex, and 
cedilla respectively.

Regards,
John Ralls
