Re: substring()

[Sara Mitchell <smitchel@xxxxxxxxxx>]

A diacritical is a general term for the accents or other glyphs
that are used in many other languages in combination with what
English speaking people would consider a 'character'. French 
for example has acute e, grave e (the accent is angled in 
different directions), and the cedilla which looks like a 
c with a very small 5 underneath it. 

(My apologies to all regarding spelling or implications in 
French. It's been twenty years, so mine is extremely rusty.)
