It is easy in Windows apps to use letters with accents etc. using the
character map for each font.  I put a note in the Papyrus 'author' entry
reminding me of the necessary changes, then when I write a document, the
reminders are there.  It doesn't look very good in your bibliography if you
forget, though.
