Hi Mats,
I tried convert-ly on one of my files, and still couldn't get lilypond to
compile. Just so I know, is it:
convert-ly [oldfilename.ly] [newfilename.ly]
or
convert-ly filename.ly (thus revising the text file)?
Because this is what I tried, and kept getting errors I couldn't make out
That did it! Thank you. I chose method 2 from the above, but will keep

Hi,
I have just started using lilypond 2.5.29 in order to take advantage of
some of the newer features. Having used convert-ly to import a recent
score from 2.4.5 (I don't think it did very much), most things seem to
work OK.
However any 'special characters' called in the 2.4.5 score don't seem t
Since you use version 2.2, the answer is to use LaTeX commands, for
example
c1^"$\\hat{5}$"
In version 2.5 and later, the answer will be something else.

The normal answer would have been to ask you to run convert-ly on
your file. However, as far as I understand, this utility is missing
in the native distributions for the moment, so instead you have to
read the NEWS file:

You mentioned convert-ly yourself in an earlier email. That should
fix your existing files. Of course, you have to learn what has
changed to be able to write new scores. A good starting point is
the NEWS file on the documentation page for 2.5.xx.

You need a text editor that handles the UTF-8 encoding of characters,
