My $0.02 Two approaches: enable the US-Intl keyboard character set, then you can press ctrl+shift+~, release, then press n and ... ñ. Alternatively you can enable the Spanish keyboard set. Since I go back and forth between English and Spanish, but mostly English, I prefer the US-Intl approach. I have a US type keyboard and the Spanish keyboard set remaps many keys to different characters than those on the keys themselves, which makes it sometimes a pain to find a character unless you are either use to it or buy a different keyboard.
