In the gnome-utils package in Debian, you can find gcharmap.
If you just want to get accents and foreign characters available
(say á, ñ or somesuch) with a British keyboard, you can use the
Compose/Multi Key stuff (Compose key + ' + a for á).
Hope that helps (and if you manage to get the Compose stuff to
work, let us know how :D. Out of two tries, I got it to work once!).
