Hello, I'm starting to use Lilypond (version 2.8.6-1) and I'm having problems with non-ASCII characters used on lyrics. I use Emacs as editor and configured it for UTF-8.
I searched in the 2.8.x manual for issues on encoding and followed section 10.1.4 (Text encoding) and used the suggested commands (with test.ly): $ lilypond -b texstr test.ly GNU LilyPond 2.8.6 Processing `test.ly' Parsing... Interpreting music... [6] Preprocessing graphical objects... Calculating line breaks... [3] Calculating page breaks... Layout output to `test.texstr'...ERROR: In procedure ly_outputter_dump_stencil: ERROR: Wrong type argument in position 1 (expecting Paper_outputter): #<Prob: page C++: Prob((stencil . #<Stencil >) (space-left . 106.324757779528) (bottom-system-edge . -53.2536674173228) (penalty . 0.0) (configuration 6.82866141732283 11.8286614173228) (force . 0.0) (lines #<Prob: paper-system C++: Prob((Y-offset . 6.82866141732283) (number . 1) (stencil . #<Stencil >))((is-title . #t) (is-book-title . #t)) > #<Prob: paper-system C++: Prob((Y-offset . 11.8286614173228) (number . 2) (system-grob . #<Grob System >) (refpoint-Y-extent -24.825006 . -7.6) (penalty . 10000) (stencil . #<Stencil >))() > ) (prev . #f) (printable-height . 150.57842519685) (foot-stencil . #<Stencil >) (head-stencil . #<Stencil >) (page-number . 1) (is-last . #t) (paper-book . #<Paper_book>))((paper-height . 169.57842519685) (paper-width . 119.50157480315) (left-margin . 5.69055118110236) (top-margin . 5.0) (bottom-edge . 163.57842519685)) > The file compiles correctly if I switch the non-ASCII characters by their ASCII counterparts (so, it is only related to the characters). I appreciate any help on this; I'm using Debian GNU/Linux.
