I am writing a paper in Turkish which has a title 'Giriş' to the
introduction section. I am using the ieeetran package as template, so
the section headings are in small caps. However, small caps for
'Giriş' produces 'GIRIŞ', the letter i has no dot on it as in English.
But, in Turkish, we have two separate letters for i, one is dotted (i)
and the other is not (ı). They both have their capital versions I and
İ (sorry, I am not sure these will display correctly in your
computer's encoding). How can I produce the small capital dotted i?

I know of at least two solutions. The first you could attempt is a
straight-forward hack by using
\textsc{\.{\.i}}
to produce a dotted i (lower case I) in small caps. The following
minimal example produces the correct output:

\documentclass{article}

\begin{document}
\textsc{This makes your suggestion \textsc{Poss\.{\.i}ble}.}
\end{document}

Let me (us) know if this is insufficient.
