French quotation marks keyboard Solved

Question

Hello,

I would like to know if there is a technique to replace the English quotation marks ( " " ) with French quotation marks (« »). I know that you have to type Alt 0171 and Alt 0187, but I find it annoying to do it every time... So, I would like to know if there is a tool to download that would do it automatically.

P.S.: I have Mozilla Firefox

Thank you in advance.Configuration: Windows XP
Firefox 2.0.0.14

download autohotkey (open source = no ads, no viruses!)
create a new autohotkey file (right click)
edit it with notepad for example (in code = THAT way!, not unicode or anything!)
write the code (very simple) with this: https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/Hotkeys.htm

to launch automatically on startup, create a shortcut of your file and put it in the start menu/ in the startup folder (or something like that in French) in English it's allprogram/startup folder

my code for example:

the key "²" becomes "« " and "$" becomes " »"

and as a bonus when you press windows+n it opens notepad++

²::
Send «{space}
return
$::
Send {space}»
return
#n::Run Notepad++

Hello,

I might have a solution, but it seems like it only works in Word, so I don't know if it can help you.

It involves pressing the quotation mark key on the keyboard twice to open the French quotes and doing the same thing again after typing your text to close them.

There you go, I’m not sure if you already knew this (sorry, I didn't bother to read all the comments); if you did, then never mind, it might help someone else, otherwise, great ^^!
