When I recently spelled the word creme in a document I noticed Atlantis wants to place some kind of black mark over the first e in the letter. Is this a bug or is that supposed to be there? Kind of a language specific thing or something?
I'm using version 1.6.1.9.
Is this little mark supposed to be there?

The AutoCorrect of Atlantis replaces "creme" with "crème". You can remove the corresponding "Replace ... With ..." pair from the "Tools | AutoCorrect Options..." dialog of Atlantis if you do not need it:
By the way, the latest version of Atlantis is 1.6.4.1. The simplest way to upgrade your copy of Atlantis is through the "Help | Check for Updates..." menu command.
Accent
The little black mark is called an accent. This particular one is called accent grave - this is the one which slants down to the right. I would keep it there if I were you: My dictionary shows that it is correct to spell it with an accent in English, because it is a French word.
The French are very fond of accents. They also have accent aigu, which goes up (like in allé) and accent circonflexe which goes first up, then down: hôtel.
