French acccents

[Graham Norton]

Thanks for the comments.

I am using the editor TeXShop with MacOSX, and so I cannot enter  
French characters via the editor.

I did not find  3.3.3 of the reference manual useful. How/where does  
one find the hex code for e' for instance? Googling
ISO/IEC did not shed any light on how to find the actual codes.

Getting UTF-8 into TeXShop is not straightforward and Lilypond accepts  
e`, e' and c, (cedilla) in the lyrics, so this is what I will use, and  
just omit the circumflex. Singers should not have any difficulty with  
it.
