If you want to stay with ASCII, that is not a problem: utf-8 is a proper superset of ASCII (a 7-bit encoding). An ASCII file does not need any conversion to be treated correctly in an utf-8 environment. It is the pesky variety of 8-bit encodings and more that may cause trouble. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
