Bennett -- many thanks again for compiling the LyX 1.4.2 binary for the Mac and making it available on your college's website -- much appreciated!

I have been running it for the last couple of days, and do enjoy the fact that the user interface is now available in German (the language my Powerbook prefers ;-). However, there is one nuisance, and it concerns the German umlauts (a,o,u with little dots on top: ä,ö,ü). In LyX, they are displayed as "a,"o and "u. So the "Insert" menu item is "Einfügen" in German, but LyX displays it as "Einf"ugen".

Is there a way this could be corrected? Or does it have something to do with the QT toolkit? I seem to recall that no such problems existed in the LyX 1.3.x branch, but there may have been changes in the toolkit since.

Anyway, any information on this would be greatly appreciated, and if a solution could be found, I would be very happy (as, I assume, other German LyX on the Mac users would be!).

Best wishes

Andreas
