Hello,

In a German language document I am trying to produce a nomenclature in LyX
using the implemented functions for the nomencl package. Some of the symbols
I use start with a German umlaut, e. g. ÖJZ. These entries are listed at the
beginning of the nomenclature if I code the umlaute as \"A, \"O, \"U and at
the end if I type them in directly as Ä, Ö or Ü. However, I want them to be
listed among the entries starting with A, O or U respectively, so I changed
the nomenclature command in Tools > Preferences > Output > LaTeX to
"makeindex -g -s mein_nomencl.ist"; "-g" being the command to tell MakeIndex
to use the German sort order and "mein_nomencl.ist" being a .ist-file with
the command "quote '+'".

LyX compiles the nomenclature without any problems other than the wrong sort
order if I use the standard nomenclature command. However, with my changed
options it will produce a document where everything I wrote besides the
nomenclature is printed, but the nomenclature is completely left out.

Does anybody know an explanation for this behaviour? I would be very
thankful for your help.

Thomas
