One correction -- this has nothing to do with canonical equivalence. This (as for all other ISO/IEC 8859-1 encoded characters) is an example of two different character encodings each encoding the same abstract characters. Canonical equivalence is a relationship between alternate Unicode coded character representations; it is not a relationship between Unicode characters and characters in other character encodings. --Ken
