The only unicode characters I ever need are in fact, on rare occasions, some Latin-1 character (à é è ç ö ü etc.) in a song title. The ASCII editor I use accepts these characters, but then LilyPond \markup just skips them. I would rather not switch to a utf-8 editor.
What editor do you use, then, an what character encoding does it use when savinf the files? Most text editors nowadays can be configured to save the file using UTF-8.
Is there any way to incorporate Latin-1 (or unicode) characters into an ASCII LilyPond file, using HTML notation or some other trick? It wouldn't have to be "convenient" if it would just work. I have used only LP's built-in roman and sans fonts; would using an external TTF (TrueType) font give me access to Latin-1 characters that LilyPond would recognize?
It doesn't matter what font you use. In fact, the text font used in Lilypond are not built into the program but taken from what you already have on your machine. /Mats _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
