Description Jean Privat 2005-12-02 16:27:38 UTC
Hello, I think the idea is of accessories-character-map icon is to represent a
"weird" key of a keyboard to suggest that the entry associated with the icon is
related to extended caracters : ie characters that are not printed on the user
keyboard.

The problem is that even if the 'á' character is not present on the keyboard of
icon designer, it is not always the true.

A solution is to replace the 'á' with something realy weird. for exemple an a-e
lugature (æ) with a diacritic (or even two like in the vietnamese '&#7853;' characters)
