I wouldn't pretend to know the truth on this matter, but you might update the wikipedia article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diacritic if you do, as it does not agree with your comments.
Wikipedia says, "Swedish uses characters identical to a-diaeresis (ä) and o-diaeresis (ö)". This is a little ambiguous. Identical how? I think they mean "visually identical to". The distinction is whether Swedish treats 'ä' as a variant of 'a' or as a completely separate letter. The latter is the case.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umlaut_(diacritic) states: Swedish [...] treat[s] them as independent letters. Doug --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
