Hello,
I have the same problem, in a french environment.
I use LilyPond with jEdit 4.3 pre9 on Windows XP (java 1.6)
At compile time, all console messages print bad when there are french 
(accented) characters.

I tried to set LANG=fr permanently in 'My Computer' properties (both in user 
and system vars) and nothing happens.
I tried also to change command line in jEdit, setting :

Plugins>LilyPondTool>Development>Lilytool 
Options>LilyPondTool>Commands>Lilypond command

to

chcp 65001 && lilypond

but then I can't compile at all ; jEdit error message is :
"Error running external command. See the activity log about the problem."
(though I can run the chcp command in a windows cmd shell)

What is wrong ? How did you make jEdit to call it ?

Thanks,
Germain
