Make these accent marks and symbols by holding down the "Alt" key (by the spacebar) and using the keypad at the right of the keyboard.

The "Num Lock" has to be on. You need to use the numbers from the calculator part of the keyboard.

Default Software-

In a recent publication of El Nuevo Herald, the grammar topic of the day was related to computer terminology.

Outlined below are the common terms used in Spanish including the English word software:

* programas
* aplicaciones
* 'soporte lógico'- IMO, this seems to be the least common

BIEN DICHO
La palabra inglesa software se refiere al conjunto de programas, instrucciones y reglas que permiten la operación de una computadora.
Aunque los usuarios y especialistas se mantienen apegados a la palabra en inglés, nuestra lengua posee equivalentes tales como programas o aplicaciones. A estos vocablos puede acompañarlos la especificación 'informático', que a veces, producto del contexto no es necesaria.

Ejemplos:

La nueva ley promulgada por el gobierno cubano facilita el control de programas informáticos.

Los viejos equipos no siempre permiten el uso de nuevas aplicaciones.

Otra posibilidad es emplear la expresión 'soporte lógico', preferida por ciertos profesionales.
