Hey all, I'm looking for recommendations on how to replace accented characters, like e and u with those two little dots above them, with the regular e and u characters.
FWIW, those two dots are called an "umlaut". Paul
FWIW, the whole letters ÄäÖöÜü are called "Umlaute" (umlauts). The two dots above *these* letters are "Umlautzeichen" (umlaut marks). But two dots above an e or i are called "Trema" (diacritic mark). Marcus
On what other list could we learn that?
A linguistics list I'd wager. :B Cheers, Rob.
And let's not forget the Trema list. :-) My point was more to the theme that we are an eclectic group of people with a wide range of knowledge and skills. Individually we may have trouble finding our ass, but together we can find the answer to many things. Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
