I am new to this list and relatively new to the whole subject, relatively means I read already a lot of stuff, all my source and other local docs, unicode.org, HOWTOs, last years archive and some of the links on my way. Despite of that I am not yet very firm in sometimes finding the right expressions, so you might excuse if I sometimes don't hit the nail right away.
... which might already apply to the subject ... ;) Assumption: A diacritic is the small part added to a letter to form a digraph, like acute would be the diacritic for e with acute. This is at least what I mean with it. Question: Is there a difference between the diacritics which dumpkeys shows as being synonyma? How do I have to understand synomym? Example: My linux/kbd combination says in dumpkeys that caron is a synonym for circumflex. So as one would generally understand synonym it means flatly spoken the same. But to my knowledge the caron is an inverted circumflex and all example fonts show z with caron as z with a little v on top. I never saw ogonek or those other synonyma that big to draw my conclusion from what I see (this is a console only system). Would anyone please comment on this, links wellcome, my list is just at the beginning. Thank you. -- Erika Pacholleck <pacholleck dot e at gmx dot de> -- Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/
