I am just a pragmatist - the programme that runs this list wont reproduce diacritical marks so it is pointless to try and include them....Actually in early sources accents aren't always used anyway. In Spanish acute and grave accents are not used although the tilde usually is. I don't think anyone on this list (not even our Spanish members) would lose any sleep if I write espanola without the tilde... I am sure everyone on this list is intelligent to understand what is intended...... Monica P.S. at least I now know what the title of this song is supposed to be...

It was a very popular tune. I don't suppose there are any plans for the CMME format to support tablature...? Using the old French "Dont" BTW solves the accent's problem, as opposed to the modern "D'où" ... Obviously Monica is blissfully unaware of all the political issues linked to the "réforme de l'orthographe" in France. Getting rid of accents is akin to the English getting rid of the pound and switching to euros instead: a very sensitive issue likely to cause large numbers of people to gather in the streets, some of them armed with pitch forks.
