In 8859-1 yes but not in 8859-15 (aka Latin9)... In 8859-15 (which is 8859-1
with 8 different characters including the Euro symbol >¤< and the '½/¼' aka
oe/OE pair), the acute accent is a slovac letter (I think), a 'Z' with a
reversed circumflex (like a small 'v').
The iso15-thin-8x16 console font has all the new characters.
That's why this character should have never been used in place of an
apostrophe but I've seen many germans using it, even those outside
Windows... I've always wondered why.
