Sol,
Put this in your lilypond file, before the music: #(define-bar-line ".|:-|." "|." ".|:" ".|") And you can use ".|:-|."

Basically the goal would be exactly the same functionality as ".|:-||" except with "|." instead of "||". (Actually I shouldn't say exactly the same -- part of the goal would be to get the 2nd ending marking to terminate down at the closing double bar, which it doesn't seem to do with the "||" barline.) At any rate, I cannot figure out how to do this. I've tried adding the "|." at the end of the first part and the ".|:" at the beginning of next, but it seems like the second barline marking overrides the first, leaving the line ending mark just a normal single barline no matter what I've asked for explicitly. I've prepared a shortish example, but it's still sort of long so instead of including it here I've made a gist: https://gist.github.com/colomon/7722b122f1ec84f918e0b1b0b1c86ff8 (This version includes ".|:-||" where I'd hope to have "".|:-|.".) Any ideas to help me? Thanks, Sol -- Solomon Foster: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> HarmonyWare, Inc: http://www.harmonyware.com
