To get accents in Scribe, include the following lines in your manuscript file
(.mss file):

	@LibraryFile(Accents)
	@Style(Fontfamily TimesRoman)

You may use Helvetica instead of TimesRoman by replacing 'TimesRoman' with
'Helvetica'.  These are the only fontfamiles with accents.  Accents only work
with device PostScript.

Second, in Scribe, an accented letter is one character, not a letter and an
accent.  So when you specify an accented letter, you must put in a scribe
command that specifies that combination in the place of the letter in the
word.  For example an "n" with a tilde (~) is known in Scribe as '@ntl()'.

To print the word: "nina" with a tilde on the second "n", you would use:

	ni@ntl()a

Unfortunately, there is no easy way to find out what accented letter
combinations are available, but you can type the following commands to find
out:

	attach consult
	lpr -Pprinter /mit/consult/lib/scribe/database/timesroman.accents.PS
or
	lpr -Pprinter /mit/consult/lib/scribe/database/helvetica.accents.PS

where 'printer' is the name of any postscript printer.  This will let you see
what each accent looks like and what its name is.

There is a shortcut to typing in the accent commands like '@ntl' in emacs.
See the OLC Answer "An easy way to type in Scribe ACCENTS" under the "Emacs"
topic.
