[OPEN-ILS-DOCUMENTATION] Unicode and asciidoc?

[Jane Sandberg]

Hi Robert,

Thanks very much for your help with this.  I just committed those
docs.  After you identify a suitable font, could you share that
information with me?

Appreciatively,

   -Jane

The documentation includes some examples of PO files, including a háček (the diacritic that you see above the "c" in the word háček).
