Re: Beaming and grace notes
Is the original correct? I would guess that a treble clef has been forgotten in the upper staff, at the moment the staff is crossed in the grace note run. How else can the run, and especially the cross-staff chords in the last four 1/32 notes make sense? Rutger On 11/29/2014 07:49 PM, Knute Snortum wrote: Ah, I see.

Re: Beaming and grace notes
You are correct; the original is missing a treble clef. I am using an early edition that has passed into public domain to transcribe, but so far I've found three errors in the score. I'm using a later edition to double check from but I'm still transcribing from the earlier one so my transcription is free of any copyright. I should have using the later edition for the example.

Re: Note name to markup
Maybe this snippet could help : http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=856 I have made a version that works with all key signatures, including microtonal ones, when using the SMuFL http://www.smufl.org standard, with some padding issues remaining. I replace the original mode name lookup with an associative list where keys are the mode key-alist definitions, making it easy to add modes and change names. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

lilypond-cheatsheets
Hello. Just want to share a LilyPond script I developed for myself, in case anyone would find it useful. This script https://github.com/sg2002/lilypond-cheatsheets allows you to generate a cheetsheet for a fretted instrument like a guitar. Example is available here. https://github.com/sg2002/lilypond-cheatsheets/blob/master/guitar-standard.pdf?raw=true Scheme source may be a little rusty and I probably could have used more of LilyPond api, but I felt that a simpler abstraction would work better in this case. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Since it's a LilyPond cheat sheet, wouldn't it be better to use c' cis' d' etc instead of C3 and so on? Also, guitar sounds an octave lower than notated, which is often indicated by a small 8 below the clef.
