How are umlauts encoded in math text mode?
Here in the LyX file for ä
\begin_inset Formula \( \ddot{\textrm{a}} \)
\end_inset
In the meantime, I reminded that I explicitly reprogrammed
the bindings to get the umlaut in math mode (initially I needed
the umlaut in math mode as a shortcut for second order derivative w.r.t.
time, which is \ddot{} in LaTeX).
So I added in the math.bind file:
\bind "M-m S-quotedbl" "math-insert ddot"
AFAIR, Jean-Marc recommended rather:
\bind "M-m ~S-quotedbl" "accent-umlaut"
which is present in the standard math binding of 1.0.3 and 1.0.4
Both bindings produce the LyX code above, which gives back the umlauts
when you relead the file.
