Re: how to add a utf-8 character to the title

[Brian Kidd]

thanks to all who suggested using the short way. unfortunately, my  
system does not seem to be configured for this easy solution. when i  
run lilypond on the simple file below, i get the following error and  
the title is SintIntro instead of Sinté Intro. i'm happy using the  
long way, but would be interested in knowing how to fix the problem  
with the short way.

thanks,
-brian

example_title.ly
%% simple lilypond example file
\version "2.12.2"

\header{
    title = "Sinté Intro"
    tagline = ##f
}

\paper{
    #(set-paper-size "letter")
    line-width      = 7.0\in
}

\markup{ \null }
%% EOF
