For Unicode in Windows my preference is a little program called Wizkey - not
free, but extremely ergonomic, both for searching and blind typing (in the case
of ö, I just keyed: ctrl-: o).

For the tempo example, I just use markup in the \tempo command.
For the equality, I use something like:
^\markup \left-align \concat { " ← " \smaller \note-by-number #2 #0 #0.8 "
=" \smaller \note-by-number #2 #0 #0.8 " →" }
with alignment and offset trimmed as required (in my case to get the = over the
bar-line).

Subject: Fonts and Tempo
Good evening -
Let me start off by saying I'm loving working with lilypond to engrave music.
Well Done!!
Questions. How can I do this (an umlaut over the o??)
And on tempo markings (the "ca." after the equal sign. I could do it as all
text but wanted to know if there's a more "lilypond" way to do it).
And as long as I'm asking (and you're still reading). How about this (a half
note = a quarter note. I'd be happy to do it without the arrows -- which I
think borders on silly -- but I'll give extra credit):
Thanks for any help you can provide. I have the Lilypond 2.12 Notation
Reference so if you even point me to the section to reference I'll work it out.
Kind Regards,
--greg
