I was forgetting that you need to install info pages separately on a Debian system, because of an "issue" about document licensing. (Debian doesn't think the license of GNU docs conform to the Debian's notion of freeness.) > Assuming the NEWS file is up to date, it's in the "Obsolete and deleted > packages" section: > > iso-acc.el is now obsolete.

Thanks again. That works, and as you say, it's the same as (or at least very similar to) iso-accents-mode. Cheers, Ryo
