Stéphane, Phil, et l'autres,

Accents needed for non-english characters can be found either in "character 
sets" or ye olde ASCII.

ASCII characters can be made on PCs by holding down the ALT button and 
entering the appropriate numbers on the number pad.

Cedilla = Alt135 ç or Alt 128 Ç

C? EZ!

That _is_ cumbersome on US keyboards and most Americans would rather 
dispense with them altogether or do things like e', e`, e^ or e" for é, è, 
ê, or ë.  Quicker than looking up ASCII, and a little less confusing than 
eliminating them.

You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be misquoted, 
then used against you.
