They're quite different programs. I agree with the other posters. You're barking up the wrong tree. Trying to force lilypond to be a different kind of program is going to frustrate you, nothing else. Maybe SuperCollider? In SC, you can: - Specify pitch as MIDI note numbers (including 60.5, 60.25 etc.). - Do any math at all on them. - Represent musical events in a number of useful ways. - Use "patterns" for concise, abstract representations of musical behavior (including aleatory). - more... I think it's Bernardo Barros (who is on this list?) who was working on FOMUS integration in SC, and I heard some mentions once upon a time of a "LilyCollider" project, probably in early development, but could help connect the SC stuff to lp notation. hjh -- James Harkins /// dewdrop world [email protected] http://www.dewdrop-world.net "Come said the Muse, Sing me a song no poet has yet chanted, Sing me the universal." -- Whitman blog: http://www.dewdrop-world.net/words audio clips: http://www.dewdrop-world.net/audio more audio: http://soundcloud.com/dewdrop_world/tracks _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
