I recommend you don't try that. iso-accents-mode is an old package that was designed before Emacs was extended to support all kinds of funny charsets. It still mostly works but has a few misfeatures. Nowadays you should use input-methods instead. Try C-\ (or C-u C-\ to see what are your options). Stefan
