.      ...I think that symbol is called a 'hachek.'  We linguists use it as
.a diacritic over the letters s, z, c, and j in phonetic transcription to
.indicate the sounds commonly written sh, zh, tch, and dj.

.In any case, this character is NOT available in Apple's fonts or Adobe's
.Laser fonts for the Mac.

Beg to differ, but use ResEdit to look at the FONT resource for character 255.
I can't help it if there is no recognized keyboard equivalent.  It also prints
fine on my Laserwriter...
