Mine neither, but the 'US International' keyboard setting makes the sequence "o into ö. Downside, to
get a quote (single or double) one has to type an extra space (or a character that cannot be

Even official, in general -e for all umlauted characters, likewise ss for ß, although some words
seem to have a preferred spelling.
