In Mac OS X file names are saved as de-composed UTF-8, the name

unicode
canonicalization or other equivalence between different unicode
representations of "the same" text), the file name is not "Cécile" but
"Ce¨cile".
OK, accepted. Typing Ce TAB indeed completes! (And now at daylight I
see my fault with ¨ instead of ´!)
Then there seems to be some need to type these accents more easily.
The COMBINING ACUTE ACCENT is described in GNU Emacs 22.0.50 as
character: (332481, #o1211301, #x512c1, U+0301)
so it obviously needs to by typed as C-q 0 1 2 1 1 3 0 1 ... a
lengthy action! In GNU Emacs 23.0.0 it's
character: (769, #o1401, #x301)
and seems to be more easily typed. Besides there is the variable read-
quoted-char-radix, when set to 16 it allows to input strange
characters as C-q <its hex code as of U+0301>.
Or is there something better, faster, easier to remember? And where
come these large numbers for a character in GNU Emacs 22.0.50 from ... ?
