BTW, does someone know why add-text-replacements in attached file
doesn't work ?
I got the syntax from:
http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/String-Syntax.html#String-Syntax
That's the Guile-2.0 manual. LilyPond uses 1.8 at the moment.
Hmm, so basically it can't be done.
Nonsense. You just need to use octal escapes for the actual UTF-8 byte
sequences. And you'll probably need to revisit that input once
Guile-2.0 actually gets used: I don't think there is an obvious
"portable" way to do it.
So, if neither of the ;-commented out lines below work, what do I do?
Well, the method used in ‘ly/text-replacements.ly’ (in the LilyPond
source) is as simple as that:
\version "2.19.35"
\paper {
#(include-special-characters)
#(add-text-replacements!
'(
("&:a;" . "ä")
))
}
\markup "&:a;"
Now, I can’t recall any more if the rationale behind this was to use
pure ASCII input; if you’re not bound to that, then it’s solved.
And David: The character map application gives me ‘\303\244’ as octal
escape for ‘ä’, and I found that one can use them in C, but not how to
use them in Guile (1.8). Can one?
Best, Simon
