Hello, I am a composer and music teacher at the Inonu University - State Conservatory in Malatya, TURKEY. Also I am the Director of Inonu University - State Conservatory. I am also the Full Professor of Composition and Conducting at the University.
I am using Linux Mint 16 (Petra) Cinnamon Edition as basic linux distro. I am very interested in "lilyglyphs" package. Because, I am writing some of my textbooks with LaTeX and LilyPond. Sometimes I need some musical symbols just like lilyglyphs package does while preparing a little textbook for my music students. First of all, the Linux Mint distro does not have the lilyglyphs package in its repository at the moment. I sent an e-mail to the developers of Linux Mint as my wish of entering this package. I hope that we can see it in the next release of Linux Mint. By the way, I installed Fedora 20 - LXDE desktop into my old laptop. I had bought it in 2003. I installed the lilyglyphs package into the Fedora 20 - LXDE. But, I could not able to compile example file of lilyglyphs package. "I do not know how to compile it". I know to compile an LaTeX file with pdflatex only. I read the manual of lilyglyphs. But, I have some critics. I was not able to understand that: a) If I want to compile the example.tex file which is given at the manual, which command will I use? b) The manual is very detailed but there is not any sentence about like this: "You can compile this file with this command: "xxxlatex example.tex" c) I am using "texmaker" LaTeX editor. It is very good for me. But, what kind of settings should I make for using lilyglyphs package. d) Once before a month ago, I tried to install lilyglphs package manually but I was not able to do it. Is it possible that to prepare a installer file? It could be compressed in a ".tar.gz" package. After untarring, we cand find an ".sh" file. After changing the permisson of this file with "chmod" commands, with "./xxxx.sh" command neccesary packages can be installed to the relevant directories. I saw some python files inside the package that is relevant for compiling the .tex files but I was not have to time reading it. I want to congratulate Urs Liska for the package, but these are my problem about the package. With my respects. -- Server ACİM - Besteci (Composer) - İnönü Üniversitesi Öğretim Üyesi (Full Professor of Music Composition at Inonu Universitesi - Malatya - TURKEY) - Linux Mint Kullanıcısı ve Destekçisi (Linux Mint User and Supporter) http://google.com/+ServerAcim http://about.me/server.acim _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
