sanitize-umlaut – Sanitize umlauts for MakeIndex and pdfLaTeX
This package sanitizes umlauts to be used directly in index entries for MakeIndex and friends with pdfLaTeX.
This means that inside \index an umlaut can be used as "U or as Ü. In both cases, the letter is written as "U into the raw index file for correct processing with MakeIndex and pdfLaTeX.
