  I’m using Linux. I know I can remap it but surely there has to be a more proper way. I would think, anyway.

    You can just set the layout to US (or whatever you’re accustomed to) and go by memory. 3 keys are different between ISO and ANSI, most characters are where your fingers expect them to be

      I know I could do that but that would defeat the purpose of using a Spanish keyboard. I want to type Spanish characters without switching layouts.

        Up to you, but personally I’m a European that uses the US layout most of the time as it’s especially nice in a terminal, and have a quick switch hotkey (win-space) to switch over when I need accented characters

  No need to mess about with modifying the layout, just use the AltGr key as I wrote about earlier.
