How do you recommend handling a character's accent in a screenplay? Do you just note that the character, say, has a Germanic accent in the beginning. Or do you phonetically spell it out in his/her dialogue?

Funny you ask; one of the characters in one of my scripts is German (has a German accent), It was recommended to me to read: Dr. Format, tells all. It was extremely helpful.
Wow, thanks everyone. This has been very helpful (I have a little rewriting to do).
When emphasizing the dialect for a character, do you use parentheses and insert the language into it? Where?
