Hi all, Perhaps someone can help me here. I'm trying to set the Huron Carol (old hymn written by St Jean de Brebeuf in the 1640s). I'm having trouble with his name, which requires an e (accent aigu), and I'm getting a couple of strange characters in the output. Also, in the vers in the original Wendat language, the common way to depict one certain sound is with an "8", but Lily won't let me put that in lyrics.
Using Lily 2.13.0, with jEdit LilyPondTool -- I *think* with UTF-8 (how can I be sure?) Can somebody help me straighten up the accent and character problem?
