Subject: Re: German Text Characters
Unfortunately, you have not told us, what OS and Lilypond version you are
using (Linux or Windows). Anyway, the solution below should work. Just
make
sure you have German keyboard support installed on your system. Since
lilypond 2.6 (I think) UTF-8 input is supported. There is no need to use
special markup commands. So, here's what to do:
1. Enter the desired text in a editor (notepad, kedit on linux - jEdit is
the best for me), and save it with UTF-8 encoding.
Just to explain further, you can switch the default encoding in jEdit to
UTF-8 by going to Utilities/Global Options/Default character encoding:
second line from the top.

2. lilypond your score and voila!
I have been typesetting al kinds of choral works so far in hungarian,
using
special charactersm like oumlaut, uhungarumlaut, etc. and it works. I use
WinXP and Lilypond 2.8.1
