alternatively you can look up the table here:
http://www.utf8-chartable.de/
and then manually put in the value using the '\char ##' function.
For example
\header {
title = \markup {\concat {"Bourr" \char ##x009 "e"} }
}
Which gives Bourrée with an e-acute (x009). The \concat switch means that
'Bourrée' doesn't end up as 'Bourr é e'.
I use this method because I don't have a lot of accented characters to deal
with and also I can move my ly files into virtually any plaintext editor
without worrying about any weird conversions that a different OS or editor will
do.

Subject: which encoding for umlaute
Dear community,
which encoding do I have to choose, to get the german "Umlaute" (like ä, ö,
etc.) properly shown on a windows-machine?
