Hello Doug,

DE> Actually, the Sütterlin umlaut-mark is a small italicized "e,"

Actually, when I learned it in school about seventeen years ago, I was
taught to use double acutes as umlaut markers, and there were no
macrons to indicate doubled letters. Double "m" was not very legible,
however.

Cheers -
