[XeTeX] Diacritics

[Juan Francisco Fraile Vicente]

Ok, ok, José Carlos. I can tell you that works for me, with my
configuration, but I change the font, because I haven't DTLUnicoST.

I write in TexWorks:

 \documentclass{article}

\usepackage{xltxtra}

\setmainfont[Mapping=tex-text]{Gentium}

\begin{document}

ń or \'{n}

\end{document}

Run XeLaTeX.

And I get:

ń or ń
