Description of our (internal) macros to typeset letters

Coding

We use non-unicode fonts, in various codings, which happen to be compatible with Emacs-Mule coding. I.e. some glyphs are 2 bytes, first byte indexing a latin/8859-N page, and the second byte indexing in that page.

The trick is to tell TeX to ignore the first byte. Those bytes are guaranteed to not conflict w/ printable characters (genius idea of emacs devels?).
