Most of the music I write is using the German umlaut characters in the heading and
the lyrics.

Right now I use Cygwin (currently 1.6.5, but I also did this in 4.x), and I tend to
use Windows Notepad or Wordpad for basic editing.  The workaround I've created for
myself is to create a comment towards the top of the file with all the characters
(created easily in MS Word), and then I copy and paste the specific character
directly while editing the file.  Cumbersome, not elegant, but workable.
