However when using latex and using x-symbol, \oe gets displayed as the relevant symbol, although in a sort of strange way: My current main font is courier-bold: that symbol gets displayed in something which looks like a fixfont of the sort of the family mixed, but it is not, xfontsel does not show me this symbol. So I don't know, I am no french native and have no idea how usually this symbol is generated (it seems that windows french keyboard has some ALT-I don't know key generating this symbol). The question is, should Mule support this char and how. X-symbol does not save this char as unicode or anything like this but as \oe. - ispell does not know how do spell this word s½ur Can anybody please clarify. regards Uwe Brauer
