Hi Gilberto!
I use Linux Mint 18.3, 64-bit, and my LilyPond is version 2.19.82. The default python interpreter in my installation is 2.7.12, which I think is what came with my Linux Mint 18.3 (I believe I've never bothered trying to update it since I do all my Python coding with Python 3). Do you think that these characters and encoding problems might be caused by my Python 2 version? Do you know if there has been any substantial differences between 2.7.12 and 2.7.16 in terms of handling strings?
You did not answer the question if you used one of the installers from lilypond.org or if you compiled lilypond. Try if replacing musicxml ... with python2 $(grep -o '"[^$^"]*$me"' `which musicxml2ly` | sed -e 's/"//g' -e 's/$me/musicxml2ly/') ... fixes your problem (I assume python2 executes your system's python 2.7.12). Please report the result. Knut _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
