Ok, so LFUN_ACCENT_... are cases in switch statements within these
functions:
text3.C: LyXTeX::dispatch()
insets/insetert.C: InsetERT::getStatus()
mathed/math_nestinset.C: MathNestInset::doDispatch()
I guess LyXTeX::dispatch() is what allows the accent LFUNs to be used
within a normal text buffer.
The function InsetERT:getStatus() suppress (disable) accents within ERT
insets, which makes sense.
But MathNestInset::doDispatch() contains the equivalent of this:
case LFUN_ACCENT_ACUTE:
break;
Does this mean that 'accent-acute' works in math insets or not?
(As an aside, 'accent-circumflex' is handled differently, but I guess that
is related to being able to do superscripts easily from the keyboard).
Is it possible for me to derive more information from the above. For
instance, can I say if 'accent-acute' will work inside the cell of a
table? Or inside a mini-page? (I know that they ought to, but can I
deduce this from the fact that 'accent-acute' is handled within
LyXTeX::dispatch() is not disabled within some other dispatch method
related to tables/mini-pages)
To sum it up: The accent LFUNs can be used almost everywhere within a
buffer where you enter text, e.g. in text paragraphs and tables. However,
the accent LFUNs cannot be used within ERT insets.
