Typing a macron on a computer To type a macron with the Māori keyboard, press the tilde key (~) then type a vowel. This works for both Windows and Mac computers. For Mac users, you can also hold down the Alt/Option key and type the vowel.
Tohutō/macrons sit atop the vowels and are important for the correct elongated pronunciation of the vowel and may, in many cases, alter the status or meaning of the word. In te reo Māori, macrons are known as tohutō: tohu meaning a sign or a symbol, tō meaning to pull or heave: they are symbols that stretch.
Pressing the right Alt key (often marked AltGr ) before a vowel places a macron above it. Hold down the right Alt ( AltGr ) key. While still holding down on the right Alt key, press the a key on your keyboard. Release all keys. Now the next vowel you type in will have a macron placed above it.
For example, to get an ā: Switch your keyboard to US Extended. Type ⌥a+a (i.e. press and hold the option key, press a while still holding the option key) release the option key and the a key, then type a again.
