Thread Name: The ' fada ' in Irish vowels
Subject: RE: The ' fada ' in Irish vowels
I couldn't scroll the box to get all of my long message in. Simple solution to ease any searching difficulties: Song titles, at least, could be given twice on the DT - once with diacritical marks and once without

Andrew - first message - the number codes I use are different, and I also have a shortcut for accents but not the same as the one on ApppleMacs. More discussion can be found on an old thread about Fadas in the Help forum. Anyway, the problem is that we can make the desired letters, but sometimes they are altered on the web page. Joe, is it correct that if I type in the Ä <Ä> (for example)in this box, Ä is what will appear on the website, and that is why you need to act as intermediary ? - or is it just that it would look cleaner to replace old lyrics than to add to them?
