Entering ¿ and ¡ characters using the us-acentos keymap [SOLVED]

Hi there!

Keyboard on my laptop is US English but often I need to write in Spanish. So in /etc/rc.conf I have KEYMAP="us-acentos" and in /etc/X11/xorg.conf I have Option      "XkbLayout" "us-acentos" and it works perfectly, i.e., the ' key becomes a dead key and I can easily type á é í and the like. My question is how to type the opening question mark and opening exclamation mark (¿ and ¡ ) which I need badly.  Please note my keyboard does not have Alt Gr key

Thanks in advance for any help!
