In the documentation, I came across the \lookup command while looking 
for something else.


"Lookup a glyph by name"


CTRL+F for \lookup


First heading has an example.

However, those examples are still doing curly braces. Does anyone 
better-versed in LilyPond's Emmentaler font know if it's possible to 
bring up a square bracket instead?

frescobaldi destination temp folder

[Gianmaria Lari]

When I want to try a lilypond snippet using Frescobaldi, I normally create
a new file and I compile it without save it explicitly. Frescobaldi saves
it for me in a temporary folder (in my Frescobaldi settings I have "Save
the document if possibile" checked).

For example if I do it now, in the lilypond log window I read:

Starting lilypond-windows.exe 2.19.81 [Untitled (4)]... Processing
`*C:/Users/GIANMA~1/AppData/Local/Temp/frescobaldi-n5pqsywf/tmp0fvvk0ae/document.ly
*' Parsing... Interpreting music... Preprocessing
graphical objects... Interpreting music...

.

So the termporary path where it is saving my lilypond source is

  C:/Users/GIANMA~1/AppData/Local/Temp/frescobaldi-n5pqsywf/tmp0fvvk0ae/
document.ly


I'm writing a small program that make some processing on the lilypond
source file and the pdf/png file and I would need this path information.
Does Frescobaldi writes this path in any (log) file? Alternatively, is
there any way to make Frescobaldi/lilypond writing the compile result in a
file as well as in the lilypond log window?

Thank you, g.

Replacing a certain character sequence in lyrics

[Simon Albrecht]

Hello everybody,

I have a favour to ask from any LilyPond-Guile crack on the list, 
because I couldn’t quite figure it out myself: (technical requirement 
here, rationale in PS.)


For a scholarly edition project, I’d like to have a global boolean 
variable and a toplevel music function that goes through all lyric 
syllables and replaces (for example) two apostrophes "’’" with either a 
single apostrophe "’" or nothing, depending on the value of that global 
switch variable. How could such a music function be done?


Best, Simon

PS. The reason behind this is: Haydn’s „Jahreszeiten“ use a lot of 
apostrophes in the original German text; some of them seem weird to the 
modern eye and don’t help understanding, while others are perfectly 
normal. I would like to be able to easily switch between modernising 
spelling in that regard or just leaving it as is, and I figured the way 
to go would be coding the ‘weird’ ones as double apostrophes and having 
a toplevel-music-function deal with them.

Hi all

Sorry if I use this list to ask questions about lyluatex, but I hope

I'm trying to increase the width of a snippet.
In LilyPond I can easily do it by changing the line-width and setting
ragged-right to false.
I've tried the following for lyluatex but nothing changes:

$ cat width.tex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lyluatex}
\begin{document}

\begin{lilypond}[relative,line-width=300pt,ragged-right=false]
c'4 d e f

\end{document}

No matter which value I put, the output is always the same.
I'm missing something?


Not sure, but please repeat with the debug option and inspect/show 
the generated .ly file from the temp directory.




Here's what is generated:

$ cat tmp-ly/eae183bb374f8506e020007e23aa7751.ly
%%File header

   indent = 0\pt


}
\layout{




}

%%Follows original score
\relative c' {c'4 d e f}


Don't you have to deal with ragged-last to make a single-system score 
wider than necessary?


No, ragged-right works. I've tried the lilypond snippet before copying 
it in the .tex file.


Here's an example:

\version "2.19.81"

\paper {
 ragged-right = ##f
 line-width = 13\cm
}

Rutger,

So: add \partcombineApart before bar 2 in either of your voices. You 
can revert in two ways:

(1) \undo \partcombineApart
(2) \partcombineAutomatic


Ah, stupid me! I only tried \once \partcombineApart which didn't work. 
(I don't understand much of Lilypond's internals so can't tell what can 
work and what can't beforehand.)


Thanks much for the hint!

That's a bit of a euphemism.  The main problem is that the part combiner
is really stupid with regard to dealing with note ends (basically it
doesn't): its operation is very much focused on note starts instead.  It
also does not have much of a notion of rests.

More often than not, it's not really a question of which rendering
should be chosen for best results but rather how to give the abysmally
stupid part combiner the right hints for doing a job it should have
"obviously" done by itself in the first place.

Lilypond treats the quarter note rest in the second voice as reason to

this is reasonable behaviour since the lower voice has its own rest 
which \partCombine (reasonably) doesn't suppress, so in fact we have a 
two-voice situation for the whole bar.


I know how to get rid of the "Solo" marking, and of course I could also 
correct the stem of the upper voice's first note by \once\stemUp, 
\once\voiceOne or something similar (maybe combined with tags in order 
to still be able to create an extra part for the first voice). But 
somehow I feel that \partcombine shouldn't force me to do so.


So: Is there a way to make \partcombine recognize the lower voice's 
quarter rest as reason to automatically treat the upper voice as the 
\voiceOne ?

Re: Make TOC entries available to LaTeX

2018-04-19 16:19 GMT+02:00 Urs Liska :

Hi all,

I'm preparing an automated edition process using LuaLaTeX, Pandoc and
LilyPond.

After some experimentation I have come to the conclusion that I'll have to
insert the multi-movement score as a single PDF created by LilyPond (but
through lyluatex to make use of caching and the layout mechanics).

I first had used lyluatex's facility to include the score's system by system
and print all the titles with LaTeX, but this didn't work out - for the
first time I realized that lilypond-book-preamble.ly makes the vertical
staff-staff spacing as tight as possible, which often makes the page layout
pretty bad. Creating the movements separately is not an option either
because not all movements will start on a new page.

So now I have included a multi-movement score in the LaTeX document and
don't know how to add TOC entries (in LaTeX) for the movements. I can see
two possible ways, but don't know if they are really possible and if so how
to approach them:

Is it possible to insert something in the PDF output that LaTeX can pick up
as TOC entries?
(actually I doubt this is possible, but since it would be the easiest way I
thought I'd ask anyway)
Can I reliably retrieve the current page number of a given score's title
block?
With that information I could write them to a log file and read that later
in LaTeX.

TIA
Urs

PS: I don't know if it matters but the file is produced using
ly:book-process etc.

This would not work in LilyPond-Book either, would it?  The option is
called noragged-right I think.  But I am not sure whether you would not
need to tamper with ragged-last for single-line snippets anyway.  Is
there even such an option for the respective LaTeX embeddings?

Partcombine with rests

Folks,

in the following example

\version "2.19.80"

One = \relative d'' {

Two = \relative g' {
  R1
  r4 e4 d2
}

\new Staff \partcombine \One \Two

Lilypond treats the quarter note rest in the second voice as reason to 
put "Solo" and down-stem the first note of the first voice. I'm not sure 
this is reasonable behaviour since the lower voice has its own rest 
which \partCombine (reasonably) doesn't suppress, so in fact we have a
