I've no idea what the hex codes are: what I did was change my input
method to german-prefix[fn:1] and typed ``Schr"odinger'': the input
method changes the concatenation of the double quote and the o to the
internal representation of o-umlaut. The buffer is utf-8, so the utf-8
representation of ``o umlaut'' is saved. At least, I think that's the
way it works.
