I hope you have managed to convince your text editor to save the file
using UTF8 encoding, otherwise you will see exactly the problems
you describe.

Lilypond is a fantastic program! When it works...

I have identical problems on my Mac (10.5.1,PPC G4) as previously reported
on XP. "
(process:272): Pango-CRITICAL **: pango_coverage_get: assertion `index >= 0'
failed

programming error: FT_Get_Glyph_Name returns error
continuing, cross fingers
programming error: Glyph has no name, but font supports glyph naming.
Skipping glyph U+FFFFFFFF, file

The original remaining problem is that the menu-system on lilypond does no
longer work for me,
so I tried to use the terminal interface.
"~/Desktop/LilyPondPPC.app/Contents/Resources/bin/lilypond --pdf
--output=dede dede.ly"
which produces a pdf file with the characters å,ä,ö etc. removed just
displaying blanks. However
other characters a-z is printed.

The problem remains after reboot and reinstall of previous lilypond versions
such as 2.10.33

So for now, the lyrics has to be constrained to english only....

I hope and pray someone will solve this problem soon, since we can't all be
linux users...
