When I type accent marks (¨^´`) in the terminal followed by a letter (that does not match with the accent) (for example ^ and the letter n) nothing happens and the keystrokes get ignored.
Typing an accent mark and a space allows you to input it in the terminal. The same cannot be said about the GUI for login where it is impossible to type any accent mark.
I am using the debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) for i383 and an orange pi build of debian 9.13.
PS: I did my best but I’m a Linux beginner so I don't know that much don't hesitate to ask further questions.
Why not setup the Compose key--usually rt-alt or the right-hand Windows key--and then you can produce
accents wherever you need them, as well as money signs, degrees, all sorts of fractions, etc. Here, ¢, £,
ñ, ¿ ° ß and lots more. --doug
