[comp.text] Macrons

Can anyone tell me how to get macrons in SCRIBE?
We have Scribe version 5 on a Sun 3.2 with an Apple Laserwriter.
Before anyone tells me about overbars:  macrons are NOT the same
as overbars.  I have tried messing with positioning, and even some
Postscript hacking (oh dear oh dear), but nothing comes out right.
I'm sure TeX can do this, but we haven't got TeX.
