Just edit scm/define-note-names.scm. Add a language by copying another, call it
say unicode, and write
(unicode . (
...
(f . ,(ly:make-pitch -1 3 NATURAL))
(f♯ . ,(ly:make-pitch -1 3 SHARP))
...
))
Then write in the .ly file:
\language "unicode"
...
f♯
It works in lilypond 2.15.17. I think there was a discussion about it before,
in the user list perhaps.
Also note that LilyPond does not accept ♯ as an operator, which has has an
advantage over just giving a list of commonly used names, especially when
extending to microtonality.
