I can only see those with Reply & Quote and preview. Nice, although there's only one diacritic!

å á à â ã

Those are all (in addition to ä ) that I can type without using codes or the character map. I think most others won't show properly on RHP anyway.

you have to use a diacritic for å? can you put it on e,i,u,s and even n as well? I only have the å-key.

I'd love to have the upside down '^'. it would help writing chinese in pinyin a ton.

No, it's just one key, but that doesn't mean the little circle isn't a diacritic. On the German keyboard I can type ä, ö and ü with just one key, too.

I always thought å was a letter by itself. and that ä was different from ä. the previous being the letter 'ä', the latter a modified vowel 'a'. I've never seen the circle in a list of diacritics, but it could be just because it's a scandinavian specialty. I don't really know. (any real linguists around?)

I understand what you mean, and I am not entirely sure either, but you can see the circle in a list of diacritics here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diacritic#Types

oh, I see. the wiki page apparently uses a font that turns the circle into a dot so I didn't find å there at first. but when I tried pasting the 'a with a dot' here it changed into an å. I guess it's a diacritic like the rest of them then.

As I mentioned earlier in this thread, you can see it by using Reply & Quote + preview.
