medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
To provide the cauda (which points forwards) for the E caudata (or for those
who read Polish, the ogonek), try the unicode code: E+0328 altX; the same
goes for the miniscule (e+0328 altX). You need to highlight the number and
press alt+x.
If you want E-cedilla (which points backwards), then E+0327 altX; e-cedilla,
e+0327 altX
The sorts are available in Junicode (http://junicode.sourceforge.net/),
which is the font I prefer for transcribing, although there may be better
ones now available.

Maybe you can copy these if they make it through the ether. I use
OpenOffice & Insert/Special Characters.
