medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture From: Anthony John Lappin <[log in to unmask]> > To provide the cauda (which points forwards) for the E caudata (or for those who read Polish, the ogonek), well, ogoneks aside, you really wouldn't *believe* how Rusty my Polish is, just at present. >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 *way* too complicated for Simple Minds. esp. now that the new, "improved" version of WORD has changed some of the Alt-combinations. but thanks for the Terminological HeadsUp --actually i am not transcribing from a ms. but only doing OCR proofing from a printed text. which does, indeed, have backwards cidillas (or maybe those are ogoneks, i can't tell for sure). its been so long since i worked with mss. that i can't recall whether they were backwards caudatas or not --probably not, i suppose. in any case, many thanks, AJL. c > -----Original Message----- > From: medieval-religion - Scholarly discussions of medieval religious > culture [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Diana Wright > Sent: 16 April 2008 17:23 > To: [log in to unmask] > Subject: Re: [M-R] Bearded Es > > medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture > > Maybe you can copy these if they make it through the ether.
