Use ' then e. If you want a real ', you have to type ' then SPACE.
The other dead keys are ^ for circumflex, " for diaeresis, ` for grave,
and ~ for tilde. There is no dead key for RING ABOVE, because CP1252
provides this only for a, so it is done with Left ALT. C-cedilla
is ' then C, since there is no C WITH ACUTE in CP1252.

There are a few CP1252 codes that can't be typed on the U.S. International
Keyboard, but only a few.
