Sorry if this has already been posted, but our mailer behaviour tends to lead
me to believe that it didn't....

I have a couple of miscellaneous questions...

1)  What is the name of the double-dotted 'i' used in words such as "naive".
Do any fonts include it?  Is it used in any other word besides "naive"?

2)  Does anyone know of a (preferably PD) celtic-style font.  The one I am
thinking of in particular is 'uncial' (at least that's what it's called in
letraset catalogues.)  Bitmap is okay.  Intended platform is mac and/or Sun
running X-windows.

Thanks muchly
