Swedish letters in Lilypond lyrics?

[Karin]

Hi!



I have just recently discovered the world of Lilypond and was really 
pleased as long as I wrote the lyrics in English. When switching to Swedish 
I ran into trouble. There are three specific characters in Swedish and only 
onle of them is available in the Lilypond "list of special characters". I 
need the letters å, ä, ö, Å, Ä and Ö - or as a HTML-person would put it: 
å ä ö Å Ä Ö

Can you help me fix this? I have only found &aa; and &AA; which corresponds 
to the HTML-ish å and Å



Please help!

Regards,

Karin
