“These accent letter codes and punctuation codes are represented by two characters. The first character (called a signal) more or less modifies the second character. For example, ˜n represents the Spanish enyay.”

“Please try to stay away from some of those special characters (umlauts, hachas, enyays, etc), because they are 8-bit and non-standard.”

“I suppose it's intended to be used by people who are used to the US layout, but who want to be able to put a few types of accents onto a few vowels. There's upside down punctuation, no C cedille, no enyay. I don't _think_ so anyway. It may be that ~N produces an enyay, in which case it would be just as annoying to use in the Unix world as one of the other national layouts.”

“Of course, Unicode supports the enyay—ñ—as a single encoded character, but there are many examples of language elements in, say, Vietnamese, for which there are no single encoded characters in Unicode.”

“"No, no, no," I said, trilling my double r's and transforming all the n's with tildes into enyays, "I did not ask you what it cost, I asked you what it was worth."”
