About German umlauts - a trivial, but potentially helpful info

Hi all,

maybe, this is widely known already, but I made this discovery only 
recently. And, perhaps I can give hint to some one out there:
In the below minimal document, one has to write German umlauts with 
quotation marks: "u, "a, "o, "U, "A, "O, "s.

Exchanging [latin1] with [utf8] will allow for usage of the original 
umlauts:    ö, ä, ü, Ü, Ä, Ö, ß.
I find this comfortable, maybe you will take advantage of this 
information as well.



Mit freundlichem Gruß / Kind regards

                         Dr. Roland Pardon
