Hi David,
FWIW, I downloaded your file direct from the mail (reading your mail
in gmail in my Firefoxbrowser)
Opening it with Jedit returned:
/home/harm/Desktop/xxx.ly:
The file could not be loaded correctly (some data might be lost) with
the encoding "UTF-8".
(java.nio.charset.MalformedInputException: Input length = 1)
Try selecting a different encoding.
It can be selected with the menu File->Reload with Encoding.
If you want it to be done automatically, add the candidates into
"List of fallback encodings" in Encodings pane of Global Options.
Looking in
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2013-02/msg00147.html
and opening the attached file
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2013-02/txtldXgXL7Yon.txt
in firefox shows: ->attached png.
(It's a screenshot, don't knowing which result others will see,
following the links)
