This whole thread has been great, and
most helpful!
As a person who respects languages very much, I would never dream of typing a German word without the proper Umlaut, nor would I ever use the "lazy man's way" of typing oe instead of ö (example Goering *cringes* instead of Göring).
I mean, no wonder the man took poison at the Nürnberg war crimes trials ....he probably saw that on his death sentence his name was spelled Goering!
I love the alt codes, which (as has been noted) is a lot easier than copying and pasting.
temujin77, I don't have a Mac, but I do have friends that do. I appreciate you finding the appropriate codes for the Mac keyboard. I will pass this info along to them.
And thank you generalderpanzertruppen for starting this whole thread!
Umlaut icons - schnell! Danke!!
Sincerely,
David
