Together with the macros for inserting such symbols, a complete set is available for inserting any combination of diacritical marks over or under any letter, not only vowels: see table~\ref{t:accentmacros}.
-Of course the results may not be comparable with the ones one can obtain with the regular ligature mechanism or by using the LICR macros; the advantage of the redefined accent macros is twofold: (a) it is connected to the possibility of inserting macrons and breves and/or to set the various combinations over or under \emph{any} letter, even if it is a consonant; (b) for all accent vowel combinations that have a specific glyph in the font, the actual accented symbol is used so that kernings and ligatures are maintained; this result is achieved also by using the extended accent macros shown in the third line of table~\ref{t:accenti}; as shown elsewhere there is a noticeable difference between {\Lipsiakostext a>ut'os} and \textLipsias{a\s{u}t\'os} or \textLipsias{a\>ut\'os} or \textLipsias{a\>ut'os}. In this example the first word is typed in as \verb+a>ut'os+, while the other words may be typed in as \verb+a\s{u}t\'os+, or \verb*+a\us t\oa s+, or \verb+a\>ut'os+, or even in mixed form \verb*+a\us t'os+, thanks to the fact that there is no kerning between `tau' and `omicron with or without acute'

+
+The attentive reader might have noticed that some accent macros use the control symbols that are available for other standard \LaTeX\ environments or even defined in the \LaTeX\ kernel. Accent macros \cs{`}, \cs{'} and \cs{=} are already taken care by the \LaTeX\ kernel that uses a particular trick to use them as control macros in the \amb{tabbing} environment; therefore there should not be any conflict.
+
+On the opposite some conflicts may arise with \cs{<} and \cs{>}, as reported by David Kastrup. We have examined these conflict occurrences and we noticed that actually \cs{>} is defined as a `math wide space' command; an alias \cs{:} is defined immediately after the definition, and the \LaTeX\ handbook by Leslie Lamport does not even mention \cs{>}; therefore \cs{>} may be considered a leftover from the beginnings of \LaTeX, and it would be surprising if anybody used it; nevertheless\dots\ The control symbol \cs{<} has been reported as being used as a macro with a delimited argument \cs{<}\meta{arg}\texttt{>} in the documentation of package \pack{calc}. We immagine that it is very unlikely that this \pack{teubner} package might be used in another package documentation, but\dots
+
+These conflicts are avoided if Günter Milde package \pack{textalpha} is loaded; we did not find out any conflict in any testing run we made, but such conflicts may arise; therefore we decided to have \pack{teubner} load the \pack{textalpha} package at \verb|\begin{document}| execution time, so as to avoid any possible conflicts.
