Re: lilypond book error
Have you tried to directly call the program:
lilypond-book --pdf --output=C:\lilypondtest C:\test.tex
from the command prompt. There shouldn't be any need to use the
Windows version of Python (just make sure to log out and log in again
once after you have installed LilyPond the first time, so that all path
related variables are set correctly).

repeat syntax
In the documentation for

section 6.7.2
\repeat volta 4 { e | c2 d2 | e2 f2 | }
and later on down the page

section 6.7.3
\unfoldRepeats {
\repeat tremolo 8 {c'32 e' }

Is there a difference? Does it make a difference whether the repeat

Re: repeat syntax
There's no difference. As far as I can recall, it has never been necessary
to have quotes in this particular situations, but there are some other cases
where quotes are necessary, for example if you want to name a context
and the name has spaces or digits in it:
\new Staff = violin 2 {c''}
You can find the same kind of confusing mix of quoted and non-quoted strings
in the manual when it shows how to add or remove engravers from a context,
for example.

Re: Hara_kiri_engraver shouldn't handle both staves of a PianoStaff as separate single staves
I think it works fine as it is right now. I guess in classical music it's typical not to reduce the piano part to a single staff, but in modern music it is. For example in Jazz scores if you have only a chord progression with nothing specific to play a single staff is sufficient for the pianist. Or if you write for bands who play latin american music, the piano player often doubles the right hand with the left hand an octave lower. A latin pianist knows that and therefore needs only a single staff. When I write scores I try to reduce as much as possible, sometimes I even write both hands in one staff as long it is readable. This is not so much for the entire score but for the individual part later. Especially the piano part gets usually twice as much sheets as a wind player for example. Well, I guess everyone has an own way to do it, so I also agree that both options should be available. regards, Tao Original-Nachricht Datum: Sun, 26 Aug 2007 21:59:20 +0200 Von: Valentin Villenave [EMAIL PROTECTED] An: Neil Puttock [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: lilypond-user@gnu.org Betreff: Re: Hara_kiri_engraver shouldn\'t handle both staves of a PianoStaff as separate single staves 2007/8/26, Neil Puttock [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Neil, the engraver admitting defeat [...] Stravinsky:1 Engraver: 0 :-D Has anyone given my dirty Scheme function a try?

A nice article by Alex Roitman on linux.com
Hello everybody, While reading today's Distrowatch Weekly, I've just seen amongst the Rootly links column, this link: Editing music scores with free software http://www.rootly.com/topics/technology/linux_unix/Editing_music_scores_with_free_software/ I immediately followed the link, wondering, as usual will they mention LilyPond this time? (which they usually don't, because linux-music-software topics are often more sound-editing oriented and don't bother with scores)... and found gladly this (rather short) post by Alex Roitman: http://www.linux.com/feature/118302 Not only does he mention LilyPond, but it is his first item! It is a stable and mature application that produces beautiful output, optimizing the layout to look as close as possible to manual music engraving. He also mentions the excellent tutorial... The bottom line? Free software offers a diverse and mature set of applications for editing music scores. I don't completely agree, though, with his next assumption: Users of all these programs [NoteEdit, RoseGarden,Denemo] will benefit from the LilyPond engraving quality, as most of the applications use LilyPond as the rendering back end. But this is quite an excellent article, which is always good for the LilyPond community...

Lyrics without visible notes
Putting a skip in the lyrics prints a note without lyrics under it. But
putting a skip in the music does not print the lyrics without a note over
it; instead, the words are just shifted to the next note.
It is useful to able to use note skips to fix spacing issues around bar
lines, but I believe it would be much more intuitive to have the behavior of
skips completely reciprocal between music and lyrics. If you want both blank
music and lyrics for spacing, it would make more sense to enter a skip in
BOTH.
There is another way to enter hidden notes, but the directions are in the
documentation under Educational Use, and if you have to do this over and
over it gets tedious, especially since you have to enter the pitch:
f4 \hideNotes f4 f4 f4 f4 \unHideNotes f4
Up to now I have been using a breve to represent repeated pitch for chant
music (see snippet below), but I'm finding that sometimes this makes the
music too cluttered and confusing for the choir because of spacing issues
around the lyrics in quotation marks, especially if ragged-right = ##f. I
would rather print the words without anything over them until the pitch
changes and use hidden notes to fix the spacing.

2007/8/27, Palmer, Ralph [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Test.ly fails. I just tried them with quotes around Test1 in both files, and it still failed. Is there a way to get Lilypond to recognize digits (i.e., numerics) in a /score block? As far as I know, digits are not allowed in identifier names (neither are special characters such as underscores). If you try with TestOne, it should work without any problem. Regards, V.

2.11.13 under Windows XP Pro, SP 2.) For example:
Ralph,
I think you have a couple of mistakes here.
First, you need to distinguish between identifiers and files. In your
example, you had both the identifer Test1 and the file Test1.ly.
Digits and special characters are not allowed in identifiers. Thus, you need to
change the identifier to TestOne. However, digits are just fine in file names.
The second mistake you made is that you never \included the other file.
Here's a rewrite that works.
Test1.ly
\version 2.11.23
TestOne = {
\key d \minor
\clef treble
\time 4/4
c''4 c''4 c''4 c''4 c''4 c''4 c''4 c''4 c''4 c''4 c''4 c''4 c''4 c''4
c''4 c''4
}
%%% End of Test1.ly
Note that I didn't include english.ly, as that will be done in the score file.
All this file does is define the identifier TestOne. I included a version
string, so that I could run convert-ly if I wanted to later on.
The second file, which will use Test1.ly, is shown below.
%%%MyScore.ly
\version 2.11.23
\include english.ly
\include Test1.ly
\layout {
ragged-right = ##t
}
\score {
\TestOne
}
%% End of MyScore.ly
This file sets up the layout, and the language, and the version, then includes
the file Test1.ly, then uses the identifier defined in Test1.ly.
This example works, at least on my system.
I hope this has helped clarify the difference between identifiers, where digits
aren't allowed, and files, where they are.

Hi Mats, On 8/27/07, Mats Bengtsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Neil Puttock wrote: I've just encountered another problem - clef changes skew the rehearsal mark positioning to the left of the bar-line: That's since the default setting for the break-align-symbols property of the RehearsalMark objects is #'(staff-bar clef), which gives the desired layout if the rehearsal mark appears at a line break. Just to clarify this, are you saying that this happens as a result of the default setting of break-align-symbols combined with moving the mark engraver to the staff context? ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
RE: Lyrics without visible notes
I came up with the following kludge that works for the Soprano/Alto staff:
% Hidden Note
H = { \hideNotes c'4 \unHideNotes }
then in the score, I enter as many hidden notes as necessary for the number
of syllables until the next pitch change
f'4 \H \H \H \H \H \H \H \H \H \H \H \H f'4 g'4 a'2 g'4 f'4 e'2
The only catch is the note is not truly hidden because the spacing below the
staff takes the c' into account even if there are no visible notes below the
staff. So, a different definition may be required for the Tenor/Bass staff
if you don't want the spacing for a middle c above it.
I still believe a solution using skip notes would be preferable.
Another option, if someone out there understands scheme function
definitions, is to come up with a function like
f'4 \repeatHidden { c' 12 } f'4 g'4 a'2 g'4 f'4 e'2
which would allow you to easily specify the true pitch for the repeated note
and the number of times to repeat the hidden note.

Subject: Lyrics without visible notes
Putting a skip in the lyrics prints a note without lyrics under it. But
putting a skip in the music does not print the lyrics without a note over
it; instead, the words are just shifted to the next note.
It is useful to able to use note skips to fix spacing issues around bar
lines, but I believe it would be much more intuitive to have the behavior of
skips completely reciprocal between music and lyrics. If you want both blank
music and lyrics for spacing, it would make more sense to enter a skip in
BOTH.
There is another way to enter hidden notes, but the directions are in the
documentation under Educational Use, and if you have to do this over and
over it gets tedious, especially since you have to enter the pitch:
f4 \hideNotes f4 f4 f4 f4 \unHideNotes f4
Up to now I have been using a breve to represent repeated pitch for chant
music (see snippet below), but I'm finding that sometimes this makes the
music too cluttered and confusing for the choir because of spacing issues
around the lyrics in quotation marks, especially if ragged-right = ##f. I
would rather print the words without anything over them until the pitch
changes and use hidden notes to fix the spacing.

lilypond-book option --padding no longer exists?
Hi, Does the lilypond-book option --padding no longer exist? The lilypond-book manual says at 4.7 Invoking lilypond-book that there is a --padding option. But with ... lilypond-book --pdf --padding=0 --output=out tmp_rhythm.tex ... we get ... Usage: lilypond-book [OPTION]... FILE lilypond-book: error: no such option: --padding Has --padding gone away?

Removing whitespace before lilypond-books examples?
Hi, I've just started using lilypond-book and I have to say that I'm immensely impressed. The integration between LaTeX and LilyPond input is pretty amazing. I've been rendering some inline music examples in the middle of running text, and I have a question. First question: is it possible to reduce the amount of whitespace that lilypond-book renders immediately before such an inline music example? In the attached image, there's too much space after sixteenth note and before the notation snippet. Second question: is it possible to *increase* the amount of whitespace padding immediately *below* the image? You can't really see it in the attached image, but the very bottom of the notehead is cut off somewhat. (I guessed that the --padding commandline option might help with one or both of these, but --padding seems to no longer work.) -- Trevor Bača [EMAIL PROTECTED] attachment: inline-note.png___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Time signature of 4/3 over 2?
Hi,
Anyone know how to set a time signature of 4/3 over 2?
(That's a measure that last 1 complete half note and also another 1/3
of a half note. Measure 3 of l'artisanat furieux in Le marteau.)
Getting the durations right in Lily is easy.
But getting the markup right for a diagonalized 4/3 fraction (in the
numerator) over a 2 (in the denominator) is hard.
So far I've got this:
%%% BEGIN 4/3 over 2 %%%
version 2.11.30
\new Staff {
\set Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1 32)
\set tupletFullLength = ##t
\override Score.TimeSignature #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
\override Score.TimeSignature #'text = \markup {
\override #'(baseline-skip . 2) \number {
\column { 4/3 2 }
}
}
\time 4/6
\times 2/3 { c'4 c'4 c'4 }
\times 2/3 { c'4 }
}
\layout { ragged-right = ##t }
%%% END %%%
Can anyone do better and make the 4/3 look like a real fraction with
a true diagonal solidus?

Re: Removing whitespace before lilypond-books examples?
If you can stand having the note without a ledger line, then it's easier
to use
...
sixteenth note
\begin[staffsize=12]{lilypond}
\markup{\note #16 #1 }
\end{lilypond}
written here under zero-prolation.
This gives slightly less spacing to the left and the right edge of the
flag isn't cut.
I'm not sure why you still get the space to the left. A simple
workaround is to
add a \hspace{-3mm} in the LaTeX code right before the snippet.
