Several layouts have a «dead» ~ key, used for writing ãẽĩõũ. Pressing a 
dead key twice usually writes the accent mark alone, though in the case of 
~, it's not necessarily at the same height (old computers used to draw the 
~ sign higher so that it could be really put on top of a lowercase).

Portuguese and German kezboard lazout have such a dead kez.
