Hi Terry,
The function fn:normalize-unicode() will do what you want, with a second
argument of "NFC".

I need to replace the non-combining characters such as the breve K
(˘) with the combining form: (̆). Is there a way to set up a
table so that when the processor encounters the ˘ character it will
swap it for the ̆? Will an ENTITY listing work? Is so, where does
one put such an entity listing?
