[Alain] :
>You mean "all essential characters", don't you (otherwise the list will
never be complete, "foreign" characters are imported in a given language,
like the N TILDE of "ca�on" in French, the main spelling of thsi word,
whose *alternate spelling* is "canyon"). Same for the macrons used in many
French words of Indic origin, or the � of "angstr�m", a word that only
exists in French since the original spelling is rather "�ngstr�m".

try to make one sentence (which makes sense) up.

[Alain] :
Here it is, enhancing the previous anonymus quote between square brackets:
"[Portez ce vieux whisky au juge blond qui fume] sur son �le int�rieure, �
c�t� de l'alc�ve ovo�de, o� les b�ches se consument dans l'�tre, ce qui lui
permet de penser � la c�nogen�se de l'�tre dont il est question dans la
cause ambigu� entendue � Mo�, dans un capharna�m qui, pense-t-il, diminue
�� et l� la qualit� de son �uvre" (anonyme+Alain LaBont�).
Put it in upper case to have uppercase equivalent.
Done quickly, but it makes sense.
