The names of the letters you are looking for are pronounced "yah" and "zhuh" (as in the word pleasure). These are just my method of approximating the sound of these letter's names in English. The unicode names are "Cyrillic capital letter zhe" and "Cyrillic capital letter ya". In Cyrillic, the

If you want ASCII character 214, you just need a text editor that enables you to input that ASCII value as a character. In Emacs, for example, type CTRL-Q 3 2 6 RETURN (since 326 is octal for 214). If you have a German or nordic keyboard, you can also press Ö, since it has character code 214 in the

You could say \\char214 which will just be forwarded to the TeX output. However, I recommend to insert the 8bit character directly into the file instead, since it enables Lilypond to calculated the correct width of each syllable when it determines the spacing between the notes. /Mats ario wrote

Since the typesetting of the titles is done by TeX, you can use any standard TeX or LaTeX command to specify the font. The low-level TeX way to do it is \font\myfont=wncyr10\myfont but I'm sure you can find a high-level LaTeX method as well. /Mats ario wrote: On Tue, 2003-06-17 at 15:09, Rob V
