I thought Knuth would support accents! Looks like I'll have to take a
look at how they're being "introduced" into Squeak. While I don't
actually use accents that much, it annoys the hell out of me that I
can't have them when I want them and how I want them. And I think it's a
huge obstacle to internationalisation.
