I am currently trying to access custom unicode characters via:

Where 1234 is the unicode hexadecimal code, however this is giving me
incorrect, foreign characters, which leads me to believe that the font
I'm trying to access isn't visible to lilypond.
Is this correct? And how do I fix it so that I can access any
individual character from any individual font I'd like.
Does lilypond -dshow-available-fonts show that font. i.e.:
lilypond -dshow-available-fonts 2>&1 | grep Blissymbolics
The font name inside the markup command has to match what lilypond shows
for the family name with -dshow-available-fonts.
As an aside, why does lilypond direct the output from commands such as
this to stderr rather than stdout? It means having to redirect stderr to
stdout so that the shell can pipe the output to grep's stdin.
