I'm new to lilypond, I'm having some strange problems. I'm using 1.6.12, 1.8 won't compile for me.
I had tried the FreeBSD port of 1.6 but that install did not work. So I started over with the tarball. I'm further along than the port got me. It appears to work, mostly. ly2dvi gives no errors. But the output is wrong. I'm using an example from the 1.6 doc. I've added a few notes inserted at the beginning. - followed by a bar. I got my example here: http://lilypond.org/doc/v1.6/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/More-basics.html#More%20basics All the notes come out as quarter notes. until it gets to the r4 after the \bar. After the r4 the output looks close to what is doc'd. But not quite. none of the ties work. the last eigth note is the b on the second line of notes after the bar. Everything except the c''is2 is a quarter note after that. Some of the stems are too short. there are no beams. and there are no lines for notes that fall above or below the staff. \score { \notes { \time 4/4 \key d \minor \clef violin c''8 e'8 e'8 d''16 d'' r4 c8 b8 \bar "|" r4 r8 d''8 cis''4 e'' d''8 a'4. ~ a' b'8 cis''4 cis''8 cis'' bis'4 d''8 cis'' ~ cis''2 r2 a4. g16 b a c b d c4 } \paper { } } Running ly2dvi in emacs (ctl-c ctl-d) I get no errors. cd /home/eric/music/ ly2dvi /home/eric/music/foo4.ly /usr/local/lib/python2.3/pre.py:94: DeprecationWarning: Please use the 're' module, not the 'pre' module DeprecationWarning) Running LilyPond...
