Here is a table with the commands Texinfo provides for inserting
floating accents. The commands with non-alphabetic names do not take
braces around their argument (which is taken to be the next character).
(Exception: @, does take braces around its argument.)
This is so as to make the source as convenient to type and read as
possible, since accented characters are very common in some languages.
