Character transmission on Nahuat-l

[David Wright]

A fellow listero sent me a private message with my last post to Nahuat-l at
the end. I see the method I recommended didn't work with the accented vowels
in the Spanish part of my text. I hadn't noticed problems with accents in
previous posts.

 

Can someone come up with simple guidelines to guarantee accurate
transmission of our messages on this list? I think this has come up before
but I don't remember what was said.

 

Saludos,

 

David
