Qouting from above link:
L> This week, Karl Hammar shared with us a rather unusual set of macros
L> that somehow replace lilypond-book with some gcc makefiles.
Hmm, I don't see them as unusual, I see it more like that I bend
lilypond-book to the way I am used to when developing program and using
latex.
It boils down to
. using makefiles
. having something that finds out dependencies, like gcc -M
. not preprocessing my latex files by lilypond-book
I found out it was not really convenient preprocessing my latex files
when using bibtex,makeindex and friends. So I tried using
\includegraphics{lily-<horrible_number>-1.eps}, but I could not guess
what number lilypond would use so I looked into the whole process.
>From what I understand, lilypond-book do
a, run latex on the file.lytex to find out linewidth
(I've had some problems with this when lilypond-book couldn't find
latex, even though I could)
b, for every \lilypond* create an .ly file, say lily-1229701558.ly
containing roughly:
scheme code to make the output file cropped (without "margins")
a \paper section with the line length found out above
the rest of your lilypond code
c, run lilypond on lily-1229701558.ly (and the other lily-xxx files) to
produce
lily-1229701558-1.eps
lily-1229701558-systems.tex
lily-1229701558-systems.texi
lily-1229701558.eps
lily-1229701558.txt
d, it also makes an snippet-map.ly to remember which lily-xxx file is
related to what \lilypond* directive
#(define version-seen? #t)
#(ly:add-file-name-alist '(
("lily-595343642.ly" . "all.lytex:128 (lily-595343642.ly)")
("lily-1065716787.ly" . "all.lytex:152 (lily-1065716787.ly)")
("lily-1045984756.ly" . "all.lytex:171 (lily-1045984756.ly)")
("lily-897287110.ly" . "all.lytex:181 (lily-897287110.ly)")
("lily-1636488540.ly" . "all.lytex:187 (lily-1636488540.ly)")
("lily-1229701558.ly" . "all.lytex:200 (lily-1229701558.ly)")
("lily-60504210.ly" . "all.lytex:233 (lily-60504210.ly)")
))
e, since every lily-xxx-xx.eps file is without fonts to save space,
lilypond-book reads all lily-xxx.eps files (which includes the needed
fonts) and creates an file.psfonts with the grand total fonts needed to
be used by dvips to include them in the end result
---
I replaced step a, with an \include which has an paper block whith the
right linewidth, like \include "choirbook.ly" or \include "a4paper.ly".
For small snippets, I could either set it in the .ly or using e.g.
\includegraphics[width=22mm]{file-1.eps}.
Step b, is also solved by an \include, in current lilypond it is
\include "lilypond-book-preamble.ly".
Step c, is
lilypond --ps -b eps file.ly # for 2.10
lilypond --ps -dbackend=eps file.ly # for 2.11
Step d, is not needed any longer.
step e, is with a shrinked lilypond-book, ending with
...
def main ():
files = sys.argv[2:]
file = sys.argv[1]
fontextract.extract_fonts (file,files)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main ()
