Yes, better integrated. But, I've already seen such in TeX 2.9. From
a local TeX file I have the following:
\lccode`=` \uccode`=` \lccode`=` \uccode`=`
\def\"#1{{\accent"7F #1\penalty10000\hskip 0pt plus 0pt}}
\catcode`=\active \def{\"a}
\catcode`=\active \def{\"A}
Or is this just a kludge? I'm not the TeXie that wrote this.
