I just noticed that when I accidentally saved my swedish lyrics in a
non-utf8 format (most likely windows codepage cp1252 or somesuch) I got a
few screenfuls of

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

It might be beneficial to provide a better error message (if the situation
is possible to detect, that is)



regards,

Simon

PS. attaching a small demo file with bad encoding and output
PPS. Another glitch is that the \version statement does not seem to be
recognised..
