Hallo!
Thank you of your prompt answer.
Actually you didn't asnwer to my question, but I found the answer from one of the
example
files.
In the header files I have to write three backslashes before the letter, for example
"M\\\"ott\\\"onen" instead of "M\"ott\"onen". I don't know if this comes from the latex
notation or where.
best rgds,
Heikki Pollari

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.
