The only explanation I can imagine is that the parser doesn't
see the % because in fact it is *inside* a quoted string. For
example, if you accidentally put a quote-mark at the end of a
line somewhere earlier in the code, like this:
#(set-global-staff-size 16)
%\include 04_fig.ly
the parser will actually see this:
1. scheme command: #(set-global-staff-size 16)
2. quoted string:
%\include
3. unsigned integer: 04
Here it will stop parsing because it doesn't have any
instructions on what to do if it reads a number in that context.
Perhaps the problem could be in one of the included files? I
don't know enough to say for sure if that's something that could
happen. Use
%{
multi-line comments
%}
to isolate potential culprits...

If I delete the %\include 04_fig.ly line, Lilypond starts giving errors
from the next character.
I would recommend that you format your file to fit (uncompromisingly)
within at most 72 lines, to prevent certain problems. For example, I
copied your code directly into a file, which compiled with errors
because the curly braces were not matched. Here is the structure:
\book {
\header {
title = { ... }
subtitle = { ... }
subsubtitle = { ... }
%composer = { ... }
copyright = ...
% tagline = { \concat {
...}
}
I assume you meant to comment out all of the tagline? Perhaps it was
originally on one line in your file, but perhaps through e-mail it
gained one or two line-endings. Which means that
...}
}
is not commented out. Multi-line comments are done like this:
%{
tagline = { \concat {
...}
}
%}
But by doing this, it becomes clear that the \header and \book braces
are not closed. So here's a clearer indentation:
\header {
title = {
long
}
subtitle = {
long
}
subsubtitle = short
composer = short
copyright = short
tagline = {
long
}
}
Note that curly braces can safely be removed if there is only one
item:
subsubtitle = \markup \smallCaps string
So here's your file re-formatted with some changes:
1. title: \center-align -- \center-column
(I assume that's what you meant)
2. subtitle: used \pad-to-box to balance the vertical spacing
3. subtitle: used \concat to break 1 string into 2 lines of code.
4. subsubtitle: removed unnecessary curly braces.
5. composer: removed \markup \center-column since it does nothing.
6. tagline: removed \roman (default is roman already)
7. tagline: #(x11-color red) -- #red
8. tagline: removed \with-color #(x11-color black) since the
color reverts back to black automatically anyway.

Re: Different colours in a single word
Andrea
One of the commonest causes of errors in LilyPond files is unmatched
quotes, braces, brackets, angle brackets etc. They cause weird
errors which can be difficult to find. As Mark has pointed out,
this seems to be the cause of your problem(s). It really is
important to lay out your code carefully from the outset, with
correct indentation, as Mark has done, to help you spot these
mis-matches - we all make them all the time, well, I do!

Re: Lilypond sensitivity to whitespace
Nick Payne wrote Wednesday, June 10, 2009 11:55 PM
Is there anywhere in the documentation that states where
whitespace *is*
required? I was getting a warning in my console output: warning:
More
alternatives than repeats. Junking excess alternatives, and I
couldn't see
what could be causing this. I eventually found that that warning
was caused
by having no space between ] and } in one of the alternatives.
i.e.
{g'8[ g g g g g]}
instead of
{g'8[ g g g g g] }
As making that change got rid of the warning.
The only mention I could find regarding whitespace was s.2.1.3 of
the
learning manual, which doesn't really cover this case.
There is advice in Learning Manual 2.1.3 to surround
braces with whitespace:
The braces should be surrounded by a space unless
they are at the beginning or end of a line to avoid
ambiguities.
However, I've just added a further paragraph to that
section to emphasise that whitespace can always be
added, but not eliminated, especially round braces.

OFF TOPIC: on porting Platform Builder 6.0 [WAS: Re: Notation Editor with MIDI]

But that's important! Possibly you started off with a list of things that you couldn't do with Linux. That list is shrinking while we speak. It is interesting that you should complain about something not working when it does, and apparently much sooner than you expected! I don't say that you, Jan, should port any of theses programs. I understand you as you, outside in the world. Sorry if this was misleading. Ah, that's a relief. Now listen-up fellow LilyPond developers and users: I'm not going to help you as I just got relieved from this task, but will *you* please port Platform Builder 6.0 to Linux, so that Helge may switch to Ubuntu? I'm saying please, but you may take this as an order! ;-) Platform Builder 6.0 is a beautiful piece of software which, when ported to Linux may greatly help Microsoft advance their dieing mobile and embedded OS solutions -- and may almost enable Helge to switch to Ubuntu. So, what are you waiting for!? Helge, to avoid burdening our community with an unnecessary load of work, could you please check if Platform Builder 6.0 runs in wine, on Ubuntu Jaunty? Thanks! Does this mean that I have to use Open Source exclusively and have no possibility to pay for a good software job anymore? My advice would be that you can and should do whatever you think is best. Personally, I believe that advocating, using and developing free software helps the world more, and makes you happier than paying for and/or using proprietary software. Sometimes using proprietary software can hardly be avoided and feeling bad about that does not help anyone either. Yep. The OP asked for MIDI file generating.

Re: Lilypond and Jazz chords
Le 10 juin 09 à 02:11, kzt a écrit : Hi, You can find an example of a chord notated as 'phrygian' (well it's more a modal indication, but that's what the composer Gary Peacock intended) in the lead sheet for Vignette. More arguments for using names: Alt is much more easy to write and read, less error prone than: 7.3-.5-.9-.11-.13- So if Alt is always (or primarily) 7.3-.5-.9-.11-.13- we should add an alt modifier to LilyPond. Then, we could say c:alt, and get just what the composer intends. And then we should have the ChordNames context generate CAlt. Note that it's notated C7 Alt (or alt) At least in the Real Books, the chord usually just says C alt on the chart. The structure of the alt chord is pretty variable and up for interpretation on the fly. Many times it's just played as a dominant 7b5b9. I agree with Tim. It's up for players. Assigning 7.3-.5-.9-.11-.13- statically to the altered chord does not make sense to me. It depends how you define the altered chord. For me it's the chord derived from the altered scale (7th mode of melodic minor). The alt chord is a logical choice for subV7, subV7/V, subV7/IV. Of course a player will rarely play all the notes of the mode. Common voicings includes the ones with b5b9, b13b9, b13#9 BTW, is 3- right? I guess 3- is meant for #9 but looks major 3rd is missing. Right this is a trick because Lilypond won't accept #9 and b9 and the same time. Next trick is to use a b11 'as' a M3. I did that because of the limitations of Lilypond. Now we're discussing about how to do that better. Why don't we just make alt available only for scoring? bad idea? To me, score is important. midi is not. Right, Lilypond is really about engraving. Midi is a (probably useful) extra function but it should not be the aim. If I notate an Alt chord, I intend players to improvise over the altered scale, I intend compers to underlay this sound as well but not to play a cluster with all the scale chords :). If I render a midi file, I would choose one possible voicing for the Alt chord. So currently in Lilypond we can't do that: at the same time have a correct score and a correct midi track for the chords. This is not an issue for me because I'm not using the midi side. I guess the closest thing to jazz with lilypond for now is to have a separate track for the score and for the generated midi track (an arrangement for the chords). - kzt Jean-Alexis ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Notation Editor with MIDI
While MuseScore's ability to import *.ly files is a nice feature, the greatest thing about its export of *.ly files is the ability to type a score with keyboard and mouse, and then use LilyPond as the typesetter on the exported *.ly file. MuseScore is still in beta status. Although its feature set doesn't yet rival Finale and Sibelius, a thorough walk through the menus and dialogs reveals that the groundwork has been laid to make it every bit as feature rich, and more. It's quite a bit buggier than even Finale (which is saying something), but then again, it's still in beta status. Their goal--to become the de-facto standard notation program for learning institutions--is ambitious to be sure. It's not clear at this point if it will ever mature into a professional grade engraving tool. Nevertheless, I'm watching with interest...

A python function to covert lists of numbers to Lilypond files
I've been working on an algorithmic music-generating program written in
Python. It uses the function below to convert its numerical output (the same
output that is converted to sound) into Lilypond text output, thus
automatically producing scores (or midi files).
I thought it might be of interest to those working in similar areas. Any
feedback appreciated.
Regards,
John
Python code:
def auto_lily(arg, tempo=120, percussion=False, bass=False, midi=False,
filename=auto_lily):
Translate arg into a Lilypond score or midi file.
Arg must be a list of bars. A bar is a list of 2-tuples,
of which the first element is a list of integers representing pitches,
and the second is an integer representing duration.
For example:
[ [([0, 4, 7], 4), ([0, 4, 7], 4)], [([0, 4, 7], 8)] ]
will be converted to a bar of two C-major chords
each four quavers in length, followed by
a bar of one C-major chord eight quavers in length.
pitch_dict = { 0: c, 1: cis, 2: d, 3: dis, 4: e, 5: f,
6: fis, 7: g, 8: gis, 9: a, 10: ais, 11: b, rest:r }
duration_dict = {1:str(8), 2:str(4), 3:str(4)+. , 4:str(2) ,

Re: Notation Editor with MIDI
Thanks :) The lilypond export, although in beta, is a lot more solid than the import, consider it alpha. Lilypond syntax is very versatile, making it a powerful tool. But it's hard to parse as well. David Stocker wrote: While MuseScore's ability to import *.ly files is a nice feature, the greatest thing about its export of *.ly files is the ability to type a score with keyboard and mouse, and then use LilyPond as the typesetter on the exported *.ly file. MuseScore is still in beta status. Although its feature set doesn't yet rival Finale and Sibelius, a thorough walk through the menus and dialogs reveals that the groundwork has been laid to make it every bit as feature rich, and more. It's quite a bit buggier than even Finale (which is saying something), but then again, it's still in beta status. Their goal--to become the de-facto standard notation program for learning institutions--is ambitious to be sure. It's not clear at this point if it will ever mature into a professional grade engraving tool. Nevertheless, I'm watching with interest...

Re: Different colours in a single word
Dear all,
first of all thenk you for your fantastic supprt. I found the problem, which
was in one of the subfiles (I forgot to type a at the end of a markup
:blush:)
Trevor, you are certainly right, I don't do a good outlining of my files.
Usually I don't modify the header, and when I do I prefer to comment out
whole lines, that's why many times there's confusion with { }. In the
previous case I also noticed a } lacked, but it was commented out and I did
not care.
Now all works fine, but when I uncomment the line
tagline = \markup \concat { A*** M* \with-color #red M
vsicvs P*** C*** }
I get the following error:
score.ly:38:23: error: stringa di escape sconosciuta: `\concat'
tagline = \markup
\concat { A*** M* \with-color
#red M vsicvs P*** C*** }
it's in italian (version 2.10.33) I hope my translation is good. It looks
like it does not understand the command \concat it says error: unknown

Thank you very much,
Andrea

Re: Transposition with arrow quarter-tone notation
I'm rather late to this discussion, but it describes something quite similar to my need. I'm working with music from Central Europe where there is an established tradition of two levels of accidentals that correspond quote closely to what Joseph arrived at. The only real difference is glyphic. In this case, rather than combining arrows with the standard accidental symbol, the arrow is put above the note, quite close by it. So, for instance you could have a natural sign on an D with an up arrow over the D, in which case it's n D quarter sharp. On the other hand, you might have a D sharp with a down arrow over it, in which case it is a D sharp quarter flat. Note that if the key signature already modifies pitches, the arrows modify the pitches specified in the key signature, so if D is already sharped in the key signature, you wouldn't have both the sharp sign and the down arrow. (The actual pitch difference indicated by these symbols is pretty imprecise too) When I look at Joseph's solution the two levels of accidental are integrated into one symbol, which is fine, but rather different visually from the established tradition I'm working in. The Feta font doesn't have these sorts of arrows (↑ and ↓). I can easily enough insert them as markup, but the problem then is that Lilypond doesn't respect that these arrows have a priority over slurs and certain other sorts of markup, so it treats them like textual elements and puts them in the wrong place. Does anyone have any idea of how I might be able to get these to be automatically tied to certain notes? In most of the cases I'm working with the pitches will all be up arrows and I would be happy to map cih, fih and gih to the notes plus these glyphs (those three instances would cover about 95% of my immediate need). Thanks in advance for any insight anyone may have.

That looks like the \markup before the \concat is missing, i.e.,
commented out. And lilypond doesn't know what to do with a \concat
without a \markup preceding it.

There's at least one place where this is mentioned, in Fretted

It's also mentioned in Vocal. The issue is that we should have a

It sounds as if you never have written any lyrics. That's the situation
that started this thread if I'm not mistaken. In lyrics mode, you even
need spaces around the dots when doing settings like \override Score .
LyricText #'font-size = #5 (since a dot in lyrics normally is a
punctuation that belongs to the preceding syllable) and you need a
space before every closing bracket (again since a bracket also may be
part of a syllable).
A generalization of your second item is that you need a space after
every expression that's interpreted as a Scheme expression, i.e. that
begins with a # sign.

There's at least one place where this is mentioned, in Fretted
Strings
right hand fingerings, because I put a @warning about it after
finding
out the hard way when I was rewriting that section.
It's also mentioned in Vocal. The issue is that we should have a
general section that lays out the general rules -- then it'll make
sense when we mention specific cases in the NR.

Import is indeed more complicated. I downloaded the code of improvisor 3.39. It's the last and only code available. Improvisor inner model is a little bit different than musicXML one. Common practice in musicXML is to don't time the chords and put them in the middle of notes. At least, this is my experience with finale musicXML export features. I managed to make a quick and dirty prototype to export a simple melody (no tuplet) and chord root and bass (no extension yet). Chords are in between notes but lily+musicML2ly shoud be able to deal with it. Unfortunately, 3.39 is an old version, and according to Bob Keller the code base changed a lot but it's not public yet. With some more voices, perhaps we can convince Bob Keller and his team to open up the repository to the public. After all, improvisor is a fine piece of software which can benefit from open development, moreover if time and resources are an issue. Lasconic Thanks man. I'll forward this to Bob Keller too. I think he mentioned in a message that he is willing to give developers svn access to the recent code. Bob, could you comment on this? Kind regards, \r I'll be looking toward moving Impro-Visor to a public repository, as soon as I stabilize the current version, which I hope will be before the end of June. Ah that's good news. Thanks. Is SourceForge the best bet? I think SourceForge is good, but others might think different (I have little experience with it myself, others?) Let us know when it's up there.

Laissez-vibrer tie of non-zero duration?
I'm attempting to typeset a piece of music that contains a laissez-vibrer tie
that starts from a note, stretches over rests, and ends on a beat on which
there is a rest in the same voice as the initial note. This last
requirement seems to rule out the use of a hidden note.
The output I am looking for is similar to that which be gotten from
\relative c' {
\slurDown e8 ( r16 r8.)
}
except that the tie is completely horizontal.
Does anyone know how to manipulate the \laissezVibrer function to make this
happen, or of some other workaround? In general, is it possible to create a
laissez-vibrer tie that lasts a certain length of time, or until a certain
note?

Re: Trouble with convert-ly
Hi Bertalan, Looking in jEdit plugin options, the line which shows were the program and convert-ly are shows /usr/bin . And Lily fires up just fine, so you'd think convert-ly should work as well. I did 'which convert-ly' and it showed /usr/bin as well. But the console shows the following when I call for a convert-ly: LilyPond ready. convert-ly.py --edit /home/fgg/Desktop/LilyPondFiles/FaithfulOne.ly /usr/bin/python: can't open file '/usr/bin/convert-ly.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory Processing time: 0 seconds So what do we do here?

Ah ha! You're a genius! I hadn't looked in that section of the plugin options dialog. It indeed had .py on the end of it, and that seems to be why I couldn't convert. So now I can! Thank you so much!

It's rather crude, but the following override makes your slur horizontal:

I think I found a bug when doing a flam on a 16th note--the slash

\flam sn \flam sn |

Positioning of half rests
I'm fairly new to Lily Pond, and I've been trying to get a half rest to
center in it's space - as in, a half rest version of entering R1, where the
whole rest centers in the measure. There doesn't seem to be any info on it
in the manuals or the mailing-list archive. Does anyone know how to do
this?
Here's an excerpt of what I have:
\version 2.12.2
upper = \relative c'' {
\clef treble
\key f \major
\time 4/4
d2 c
r2 r4 g8 a }
lower = \relative c' {
\clef treble
\key f \major
\time 4/4
f,8 d' g a bes2
f,8 d' g a bes2 }
\score {
\new PianoStaff
\set PianoStaff.instrumentName = #Piano
\new Staff = upper \upper
\new Staff = lower \lower
\layout { }
\midi { }
}
I've attached the PDF. In the second measure, I need the half rest to
center over the eighth notes, as opposed to aligning to the left like a half
note. Hope this makes sense, and that someone can help!
Thanks,

Graham, True, but this person specifically mentioned that he was a newbie. Hmm, when I was a newbie at the end of 2007, I first downloaded 2.10.33, but after few days, I discovered the version I downloaded was not the latest. So I jumped to 2.11.34 immediately, regardingless whether it was stable or not.
