LilyPond simply uses utf-8 encoding, which is a very good approach to universal
character encoding.  Your favorite text editor can almost certainly write that 
format.
Unfortunately, some text editors (like the one I am using now) fail to make
clear what format they are writing in.  (Let's see if the long-vowel sign in
my name reaches you.)
