Re: line breaking newbie question

 Actually, the raggedright parameter doesn't do what you expect.  It
 turns out that LilyPond uses the same line breaking as it would if
 you didn't have raggedright = ##t, but instead of squeezing together
 the notes to get equal length of the lines, it will use the natural
 width of each note even though the resulting line is much too long
 or too short.

Thanks for clearing that up! I was assuming that it worked the same
way as raggedright in LaTeX.

Is there any way to stop lilypond cramming notes together? It
sometimes spaces things too tightly for my taste.

CAN'T FIND FETA20.AFM (...) ABORTING

2003-11-28 Thread Gerard Greco
Hello,

I installed and reinstalled lilypond 2.0.1 with cygwin.
I have the following error message :  Can't find 'feta20.afm' \n Fonts 
have  not been installed properly.

Can anyone tell me what to do now ? Where must be all fetaxx.afm ?  
There are now in the following directory : 
C:\cygwin\usr\share\lilypond\2.0.1\fonts\afm.

Which part of lilypond need fetax.afm ? Is it tex ?

Thanks in advance : I need to lilypond quickly.

Strange, it should work out of the box.

Please follow the instructions on bug report at
http://lilypond.org/web/download/windows.html
(you could send to this mailing list, though).
Then it might be easier to track down what's
wrong.

pagenumber = no

2003-11-28 Thread Peter Lutek
greetings!

this was asked back in sept 2002 and was never answered the issue
still exists:

pagenumber = no
also turns off the head field in \header

is this intentional?

more to the point, is there a way of turning of the page number on ONLY
the first page, WITHOUT losing any other headers? i would like to use
the head field for instrument names on parts, but don't want page one
numbered.

thanks!

RE: install problems

2003-11-28 Thread Bertalan Fodor
Installation of Lilypond on Cygwin:

Download setup.exe. (http://cygwin.com/setup.exe)
Run it.
Click Next
Select Install from Internet. Click next.
Use the Default setting for Root directory (c:\cygwin), Install for (All
users), Default Text File Type (Unix). Click Next.
Local Package Directory - Leave it default. Click Next.
Select Your Internet Connection. Use the default (Direct Connection). Click
Next.
Select a download site near your location. Click Next.
Make sure that Curr is selected in the top row of radio buttons.
Scroll package list to Publishing. Click on the word Publishing. Now you
get Publishing expanded. Note the package names on the right side of the
list. Scroll to lilypond: A program for printing sheet music. In the
column New click on the word Skip, while it shows Install (Now the
Current column should show the version number 2.0.1-1.) (If LilyPond 2.0.1
has already been installed, it shows Keep and the version number.) Click
Next. 
Wait, until lilypond and the appropriate tools (e.g. tetex) are installed.
At the end leave the two checkboxes checked to have shortcuts on the desktop
and in Start menu.

Running lilypond:
1. Click on a .ly file. If you have Acrobat installed, it will open the
compiled score. If there was some problem Acrobat will start with an error
message. You can find the cause of the error in the .log file. For
example, if you try to compile test.ly, a test.log will be created, in
which you can find the cause of the errors. This log file can be viewed with
notepad.

2. Run cygwin with the Shortcut icon in Start menu or Desktop. Now you get a
window with a command prompt. Type lilypond -h (without the quotes. You
should get some information about the command line switches of lilypond. You
can compile your files the command lilypond myFile.ly. Using this command
a pdf file will also be generated.
In cygwin you can go back to your last commands with the up arrow. You can
navigate in folders with a special command, chdir or cd (for short). Use
/cygdrive/c for c: and /cygdrive/d for d:, for example to compile
d:\doc\myFile.ly type 'cd /cygdrive/d/doc' - press Enter, type 'lilypond
myFile.ly' - press Enter, and after some compiling you can find myFile.pdf
(and others) in 'd:\doc'. If you don't want to type long folder names and
file names, use the TAB key, which will automatically type the name if it
can guess or show you a list of possible names.

I hope this helps with some issues.

Bert

I don't believe you can do that directly in LilyPond, but you can certainly
do it using lilypond-book and LaTeX.
