macrons?

Post by canuckistani »

I am studying latin and I would like to add macrons above the vowels in order to distinguish between long and short. There does not seem to be any topics in the help index that deal with this. I assume that it is very simple and I just have not looked in the right place - thank you very much in advance for your help ing the noob.

Linux has latn-post and latn-pre under SCIM. (As Bhikku Pesala says, on Windows, the use of the Maori keyboard has been suggested.)
