<p>I learned Cantonese using Yale Romanization, but I'm unable to type it easily because of the accent marks representing the tones.  Is there a quick and easy way to do this without using a special character set or keyboard layout?  If not, what's the best (read: simplest) character set to use that will give me the accents I need for Yale Romanization?</p>

I'm on Windows but it would certainly be useful if there were some answers for OSX or Linux.
