    I would like to know if the
    Athena widgets can display characters with diacritics

As they appeared in R3, quite possibly not.  As they will appear in R4,
it is on our list of things to worry about, but I can't give you any
promises at the current time.

    So will the X Toolkit support diacritics, or does it already and am I
    missing something?

The Athena widgets are not "the X Toolkit".  The Xt Intrinsics certainly do not
preclude the support you seek.
