I tried "+ O" but it did not work. The problem is the "+" character is a
unicode character U+2720, and if you enclose the UTF-8 escape code inside
the quote you just get the escape text. My code was
\addlyrics{ \markup \char ##x2720 O Lord o -- pen thou our lips}
\addlyrics{
% this did not work
"markup \char ##x2720 O" Lord o -- pen thou our lips
}
On another matter, it is interesting that you mentioned that the cross
character did not show up in your version 2.10.20. It did not show up for
version 2.11.26 either. I wonder what's up with that? Anyone here know?
