Hi Craig,

 Do I append for f in *.xml to the end of my command;

No, you put all your command within the for loop:

for f in *.xml; do
/Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/musicxml2ly  --nd
--nrp --npl --no-beaming -m --language=english $f; done

(all this is one line – or written in several lines:)

for f in *.xml
do
  /Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/musicxml2ly \
  --nd --nrp --npl --no-beaming -m --language=english $f
done

I hope this syntax is the same on a Mac.

HTH,
Joram

Re: musicxml2ly

for i in *.xml; do path/musicxml2ly  --nd --nrp --npl --no-beaming -m
--language=english $i; done

path shouldn't be needed if musicxml2lyis in your path
 so this should be fine

for i in *.xml; do musicxml2ly  --nd --nrp --npl --no-beaming -m
--language=english $i; done

Handling symlinks with Python on Windows


Hi all,

as far as I've read it is hard or even impossible to create/delete 
symbolic links with Python on Windows.

Could someone verify this and/or give me some help on the subject?

I have written a script that makes obtaining, updating and installing 
Abraham Lee's alternative notation fonts from 
http://fonts.openlilylib.org a completely automatic process for any 
number of LilyPond installations, and it works well on Linux and Mac. 
But before publishing it I would like to have it work on Windows too, 
but I need someone helping me with the code.


The script stores the actual font files in a local repository and 
creates symlinks in the LilyPond installation to make them accessible.
If that works on Windows only under certain conditions (I read something 
about elevated user accounts) the script would need to check if these 
conditions are met.
If the conditions are not met or if it doesn't work at all on Windows 
the script should instead make physical copies of the files.
In either case I'd need someone helping me with the code how to do it on 
Windows and how to execute code based on OS.


Please contact me, and I'll give you more details where to look at the 
existing code.


Best
Urs

 Hi,

 here http://tinypic.com/r/2cihc0w/8 you can see a file with some
 graphics that I would like to render in my lilypond document.
 The symbols are circled in red in the image:
 1) the top one is a sort of bar sign with a zigzag tail, I want to use
 it with the  meaning keep going with this pattern;
 2) the left one is a special sign I need to add to the \tempo indication,
 an
 arrow pointing to the right, meaning 60 and more.

 Now, I can imagine that symbol 1) can be rendered with some postscript
 tweaks, I just want to make sure I am not missing anything that might
 be easier than starting embedding postscript in the score (I am not
 looking for the % like sign used to repeat the previous bar).

 As for 2), I have no idea how I can make it. Well, maybe I could use
 again a custom
 symbol added with a markup to the first note of the measure, but then
 I'll have to take care of the note = beat and make sure it is
 uniform with the other standard tempo notations in the score... a
 complication that I'd
 prefer to avoid.

 Thanks in advance for any help!

Re: ANN: Frescobaldi 2.18

Dear Stan,

One question- at this point, is there any essential difference
between frescobaldi 2.18 and sub port frescobaldi-devel? I have been
using the development version for some time and am wondering if there
is any reason to continue doing so.


at the moment frescobaldi and frescobaldi-devel are identical, the only 
difference being the version number of the application bundle.

You can expect them to be so most of the time.

Now and then I may decide to point frescobaldi-devel to a newer version 
than the latest release, e.g. when some new important feature becomes 
available that users might want to test.
However, in that case I would announce the availability of the -devel 
version to the lists.


What you choose now is really a matter of personal preference: switching 
between the ports is very simple and quick, so you can easily change 
your mind anytime.


Best wishes.

Re: special symbols

2015-03-19 Thread Andrew Bernard

For the tempo marking with an arrow, a possibility is:

\version 2.19.17

\relative c'' {
  c^\markup {
    \note #4 #UP = 60
    \override #'(thickness . 3)
    \override #'(line-join-style . bevel)
    \raise #1
    \path #0.3 #'((moveto 0 0) (lineto 4 0) (closepath))
    \hspace #-1
    \raise #1
    \arrow-head #X #RIGHT ##t
  }
b a g
}

This avoids postscript and uses the native lilypond markup graphics commands. 
Hopefully self-explanatory.

Re: Directional NoteHead Stencil Support

I suppose a decent solution to this would involve writing the stencil
callback for Hairpin to allow displacement of the endpoints.  (Some
addition to the C++ code?)  Then it would straightforward to read the
coordinates of this or that related object, and adjust the hairpin's length
accordingly.

The following works, at least for your example.  It resets the parent of
the left bound of the Hairpin spanner to a Stem object.  You asked for the
beam, specifically, but I don't know that there would be any appreciable
difference.

I haven't tested this beyond your example, so I can't say what will happen
in a real-world example.  Anyway...

so

\relative c'' {

\once \override Hairpin.X-offset = #1.35

\override Hairpin.minimum-length = #5

b c8\ q q q\!

\once \override TextScript.layer = #2

\once\override TextScript.staff-padding = #3.4

b c8

_\markup \with-dimensions #'(2 . 7) #'(0 . 0)\with-color #white \filled-box
#'(-1.8 . .2) #'(0 . 2) #0

q q q

}

Thanks,

The width of the NoteHead grob would be easily accessible.  As far as
spacing width, I wouldn't know how to approach the problem.

You could use something like the \at function, defined here:

Don't know if this (or a variant)  ever reached -user.

Re: Shorten hairpin

Dear Kieren, David and Stephen,

thanks for your answers! Stephen’s hack with a white box is not suitable
for my packed layout here.

The shorten-hairpin function does exactly what I want in this simple
example. In my real score, I have a separate Dynamics context and this
makes your function having no effect – probably because the notes are
not accessible by the function.


  \relative c'' { b c8 q q q }
  \new Dynamics {
\override Hairpin.after-line-breaking = #shorten-hairpin
s4.\ s\!
  }


I am surprised that not even the length can be specified manually (as
there is min-length already). A combination of length and offset would do.

@David: Of course it would be nice to have an adapted version of your
function that handles the different contexts. But considering the
complexity of the function you already provided, I have to say: Please
do not spend too much time on it. It is not super urgent for me.

Cheers,
Joram

Re: Shorten hairpin

Yes it was a hack, however this might look better and in a dynamics part it
should work

stephen



\relative c'' { b c8 q q q }

\new Dynamics {

\once \override Hairpin.X-offset = #1.35

% \override Hairpin.after-line-breaking = #shorten-hairpin

s4.*89/90\ s\!

Directional NoteHead Stencil Support

2015-03-19 Thread Abraham Lee

I've been collaborating with an Italian design student that created
numerous music fonts for a school project, but they aren't actually used in
any notation program (yet), but he has agreed to work with me and take the
steps necessary to make them usable with LilyPond. Each of his fonts are
quite stylized and are designed to represent a different genre of music.
The one I'm doing first is meant to imitate the feeling of the famous Didot
(or Bodoni) text font, with lots of thick and thin elements. Anyone seen
this before? It is his designer that they be made available for free,
licensed under the OFL. He's pretty excited to see his work get out there.

Before I can do this, however, there's one issue I haven't been able to
solve. The noteheads (quarter and half) are designed such that it really
only has ONE stem attachment point (marked in orange in the attached
image).




For stems going up (right-side of image), it is the top-right point. For
stems going down (left-side of image), the glyph must be rotated 180
degrees so the same attachment point is now at the bottom-left where the
stem is located. The rotation part I've been able to figure out, but it
isn't automatic yet. My question is this: how do I determine when a
particular notehead's _true_ stem attachment at that moment is going to be
at the bottom-left so I can rotate the notehead glyph? I don't care what
the value is, though it may be needed to determine the event, I just want
to know _when_ it happens. I hope that makes sense.

Here's my simple code so far:

#(define alt-notehead
  (lambda (grob)
(let* ((stil (ly:note-head::print grob))
   (newstil (ly:stencil-rotate stil 180 0 0)))
 newstil)))

Then, when I want to use it, I do:

(\once) \override NoteHead.stencil = #alt-notehead

When I get the 'stem-attachment property of the notehead, it always gives
me the top-right value, regardless of where the stem is actually attached.
I'm hoping this will work for chords, too, though I haven't experimented
enough to know for sure. Any help is always appreciated!

Regards,
Abraham

The problem is that there is a barline across staves directly after and
other dynamics marks. But I probably can raise the barline above the
markup. Thanks.

on which OS? On Linux (bash) you can do this:

where folder is your folder containing the xml files.


or simply

for f in *.xml
when you are already in the same folder.
(I think this should equally work on a Mac).

Is there a command for converting a whole folder of xml files to
lilypond, rather than doing them one by one?
