The keyboard is configured to spanish latinoamerican and can write accented letters without problem.  The dificulty I haven't solved is the use of different fonts that shows the diacritical accents.

 Yesterday inspecting font_cache.scm I learned that the only fonts recognized are cm, ec, eo, rt, rp.  Therefore is right that TeXmacs does not show diacritical spanish letters.  I will check in other moment if character codes tables has something to do.

In setup.scm I saw that TeXmacs recognized maxima with the following statement '("maxima" . #t)' which I dont have installed.  This is a mistake.  

A new problem is that some menus in spanish does not show correctly letters with diacritical marks.  I searched windows (XP) and found that the default fount for menus and message windows is Tahoma, and this font is latin1 compliant.

To type an á, have you tried typing the combination

Does the ñ work when you set windows with a Spanish keyboard?
