Got any tips about that Middle English thing?  I'm typing the LoAR letters
to Caid's eager populace and not all of them stay within ASCII characters,
to say the least.  The Old Norse names are a particular problem at the
moment, both for myself and the Crown Prints as well.

How can I put an accent over a "y"?  Option-e is not doing it.

You and Jared <firedrake at earthlink.net> need to compare notes since he is
moving over to OS X as well.  Between the two of you big Macheads, you
should be able to lick any problem!
