Thanks to all of you for your hints and comments!
I thought \l does work, why \L does not.
To type \L is faster than changing the keyboard language when I write in German normally.

Greetings

I know I can copy and paste it, like here (copied from Wikipedia), but if I don't have a template in a hurry ...


On the Mac, if you are using an 'English' keyboard, you can hold down any letter for half a second or so and see a popup selection of alternate accented versions of that letter. Not all text editors / word processors support it but TeXShop does. No need for cut & paste templates.
