Greetings - I'm running: LilyPond 2.10.16 Windows XP Pro 2002 SP2 ConTEXT 0.98.5 with LilyPond Highlighter
I'm trying to get "é" into "Séan" in the title and composer headers. I haven't been successful. I've looked in the manual and in the list archives, but can't find what I need. ConTEXT will save to DOS, but not to UTF-8, that I can find. I did find the character code : #233, and that will produce the correct character when I use it with \markup and \char in the header, but the program leaves a space before and after the "é". [Aside : I'm not using JEdit because it takes so long to load, and I've gotten used to ConTEXT.] The following snippet shows the behavior. %%%%%%%%% Begin Snippet %%%%%%%%% \version "2.10.16" \include "english.ly" \header { title = "Sean's Jig" composer = \markup {S\char #233 an} } \layout { \context { \Score \remove "Bar_number_engraver" } } \paper { indent = 0.0\cm } SeansJig = { \clef treble \key a \dorian \time 6/8 \repeat volta 2 { \partial 8*1 b'8 | c''4.^"Am" b'^"G" | a'8^"Am" g' e' d' b g | a4 e'8 e' d' b | d'^"G" e' g' a' g' e' | \break c''4.^"Am" b'16^"G" c'' d''8 b' | a'^"Am" g' e' d' b g | a4 e'8 e' d' b | d'^"G" b g a4^"Am" | } } \score { \SeansJig } %%%%%%%%%% End Snippet %%%%%%%%% I've also tried : composer = \markup {"S" \char #233 "an"} and composer = \markup {"S\char #233 an"} but the result is identical; composer = \markup {"S \char #233 an"} produces S \char #233 an in the .pdf.
