Hi Greg,
I would definitely use the uplow opcode if at all possible.
E.g.:
uplow Éé 4-15
If the accented letters are defined as something else, you could also use
the always opcode as a work-around. However, when back-translating,
sometimes "uplow" takes preceedence over "always. I don't know exactly when
and if it is a bug or a feature.
Also, if you use dot 4 to mark other accents than acute, e.g. grave, so that
the same dot pattern is shared by several characters, the first definition
in the table will be the one used for back-translation.

Emne: [liblouis-liblouisxml] Afrikaans table issue
I am working on a grade 1 Afrikaans table which is for the most part just a
UEB table with a few local Afrikaans issues added. One of those is the
following: A dot 4 before a letter to indicate an acute accent, but not
before
the letter a, as that would conflict with the @ symbol. So how do I write
the table entry for such a situation where an sign should be used before
every letter except the A?
Thank you.
