This friend of mine is a wonderful person and I want to see him get something that will make his life better and all the replies have been extremely helpful as they get me thinking deeply about making a system that he can use, will use and makes his life better.

He came up for a visit and just did not stop working so I wont stop working on setting him up with something perfect for him.

Alex, it is indeed an accent - specifically an acute accent - but I don’t mind it being omitted. Actually on my visa it was left out as it is not officially accepted in English. Sadly though, whenever I am in a queue and my name gets called out, most of the time people read “Stephanie”, and then stare at their sheet when I get up, before getting all embarrassed and profusely apologizing. I’m so used to it now that I don’t even flinch; “Stephanie?”, “yep, that’s my name” lol.
