I think this also works in 2.6.x (I'm using 2.7.x):
title = \markup {"habe"#(ly:export (ly:wide-char->utf-8 #x00F1))"era"}

All,
it seems that Lilypond still manages the tied chords poorly, and the ties
in chords collide very often.
e.g. see:
http://personales.ya.com/v_s_d/tied_chords.png
imho this problem should be solved to avoid "poor looking" spots in the
otherwise gorgeously engraved lilypond scores, so I
use the extra-offset property of the StringNumber object, it allows to
move it both vertically and horizontally. e.g:
%%%
\version "2.6.0"
\score {
{
\set fingeringOrientations = #'(up)
\set stringNumberOrientations = #'(down)
\set Staff.instrument = "C Major"
\clef treble
use #'extra-offset or #'padding. (as an alternative you could also add an
invisible voice and attach the fret diagrams to the invisible notes in
that voice)
to add chord names, use ChordNames instead of a 2nd markup. See section
"Printing Chord Names" in the manual. use extra-offset to adju

There should not be parens alone on a line. When you read Lisp or Scheme
