I was asking if Notepad's UTF-8 encoding is incompatible with Lilypond.

Sorry to disappoint you. Notepad can only save as *signed* UTF-8 format.
Which is indeed incompatible with Lilypond.

Thanks, I'm already using Notepad2 for files having unicode. Seems not to be
working well with Hebrew though.
