Non-ASCII Characters and \header piece

[francois.planiol]

Hi!

I (still) use lilypond 2.2.0 on Linux Kernel 2.4. with gedit.

1. I found here help for the german ß (I get it with \\\ss (without") in
Lyrics. But the ß is disregarded for the spacing, so it comes to
collisions and  the syllabe is not centered.

2. Also are working ü ö ä with \"u (or o or a) and \c{c} (cedilla)


3. In the Header, it is not so easy:
ü comes with \\\"{u} (also ö and ä), and c-cedilla with \c{c},

4. but all that i tried (also try and error) never gave a ß.
(I tried: \\\ss \\\{ss} \\\"{s} \\\{"s} \\\s \\\s{s}
\ss \{ss} \"{s} \{"s} \s \s{s}
(Of course, I cant put the words in "", because it has here another
signification.)

5. Also the \header { piece = "Adagio" } doesnt work. Its ever make the
compilation collapses, except when it is empty. \header { piece = "" }

I would be pleased about some ideas! Thanks already from
