LilyPondTool 2.14.9 release (the last for the foreseeable future)
Dear LilyPond users, after a month of strugglinghttp://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detailatid=625093aid=3554870group_id=588with an official jEdit plugin repository release, I decided to release the last revision of the LilyPondTool plugin as a zip file. Download it herehttps://sourceforge.net/projects/lily4jedit/files/latest/download, and unzip to the jEdit settings folder ($HOME/.jedit or C:\Users\John Doe\.jedit etc. depending on your platform). And this release concludes the development of LilyPondTool - at least by me... I stopped using LilyPond and it makes no sense for me to develop LilyPondTool any more, as I don't have any projects that need LilyPond. I've switched to MuseScore http://www.musescore.org/, and I am very happy with that. If you are interested in my adventures there and my reasons to leave LilyPond, follow my Musescore.com pagehttp://musescore.com/bertalan-fodorand/or my blog http://bartruffle.blogspot.com/. If you would like to take over the development of LilyPondTool, I am happy to give you the support you need, just contact me. I had a very good time in the LilyPond community, I hereby thank all the support for all my supporters, the users of LilyPondTool and everyone else.

Re: Sidekick error
The current version of LilyPondTool is not compatible with jEdit 4.5. I'm going to upgrade LilyPondTool this week, until that, use an older jEdit.

Re: Lilypondtool/jEdit problem
Hi, First of all, currently I'm testing and developing LilyPondTool with jEdit 4.4.2. I'm using the MyDoggy plugin to have better dockable windows, so that might affect the behavior, you could try as well. But anyway, please create a bug report at https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=91119atid=596024 Attach the activity log by opening UtilitiesTroubleshootingActivity log, press Copy and paste to the issue. Thank you, Bertalan On Sun, Dec 4, 2011 at 9:18 PM, Patrick Karl pck...@mac.com wrote: I submitted the following to the lily4jedit-user list this morning, but it doesn't seem that that list gets much traffic. So I thought I would submit it here, too, in the hopes that someone knows how to fix my problem. This morning I was running jEdit 4.3.1 with a 2.12.xxx version of Lilypondtool. When I clicked on the Preview Output (PDF) button on the Lilpondtool toolbar, new behaviors occurred: * a blank LilyPond PDF Preview window appeared, disappeared into the Dock (I'm running OSX 10.6.8), and then popped back up with my LilyPond output. This was new behavior; previously, what would happen was that the LilyPond PDF Preview window would simply appear. * if I left the LilyPond PDF Preview window up and clicked on the Run Lilypond button, the contents of the LilyPond PDF Preview window were not updated with my latest changes. Priviously, the LilyPond PDF Preview window would remain up but with blank contents, and the updated output would be inserted into it at the end of the Lilypond compilation. Now in order to see the updated output, I have to kill the LilyPond PDF Preview window and then click on the Preview Output button. When I say new behaviors, I mean that they did not occur the last time I used jEdit w/Lilypondtool; that was yesterday. I must have inadvertently clicked on something to cause these new behaviors. Does anyone know how I might revert to the old behaviors? I have in the meantime upgraded to jEdit 4.4.2 and Lilypondtool 2.14.2017, but the above described behaviors persist. Thanks, Patrick Karl Since then I have found another bad behavior, namely, I can't get the LilyPond PDF Preview window to show more than a single page. I am forced to use Preview.app for output greater than a single page, and, of course, then I don't get the connection between the pdf output and the lilypond input.

For laser printers, it seems hard to go wrong with HP brand -- I've had a lot of different laser printers, and HP seems to be the best. The HP 5000 series seems to be well-regarded, although I've never used one. The HP 5000N is a low-cost entry point. The HP 5100DTN costs more, but will handle duplexing (automatically print on both sides of the paper). If you want double-sided printing, duplexing is marvelous (I just bought a duplexing printer, and I love it).

Just drop http://lilypondtool.organum.hu/LilyPondTool.jar to your .jedit/jars directory (inside your home folder like c:\Documents and Settings\John\.jedit\jars). It still supports the latest stable LilyPond, 2.12, but as soon as LilyPond 2.14 stable is released I will release a new version of LilyPondTool (also in jEdit plugin repository). The most important new features of this LilyPondTool release are the following, For screenshots check http://lilypondtool.blogspot.com/2011/01/ann-new-lilypondtool-version-available.html Special thanks go to Frescobaldi's author, Wilbert Berendsen as I got a lot of inspiration from his work. - better context-sensitive completion - musicglyph preview - template manager with context sensitive completion and BeanShell, Velocity support - preview in wizard - customizable background for the PDF preview - help in context menu - localization manager - compile without saving Cheers, Bert ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Fast lilypond running
Hi, I'm working on an enhancement to LilyPondTool to rerender the score in the background while typing. I found that on weblily.net the processing is surprisingly fast. Is there a known trick to make it so? I mean something like having GUILE loaded in the memory?

Re: Tweaking Jedit LilyPondTool?
Currently LilyPondTool doesn't support custom note names in the wizard and the piano input.

It looks like the Score Setup Wizard is the place to set up which language you would like the pitches to be notated as (cis vs. cs, etc). Ok fine but I would like to use my own pitch names since I'm marking up Turkish notation on a regular basis (as c# would be notated as cb). So, is there any place handy I can get in to add my own pitch naming system? And midi input will use that naming system? I've snooped around but can't find any plugin config files. Hmmm.

Re: GPL vs. LGPL
However, the GPLv3 does not allow me to use Lilypond in a commercial application. So, I'm asking for advice. Considering the license over Lilypond, which I have no intention of breaking, what should I do about my conundrum? Are there alternatives that produce output of the same quality that I should consider? Use it as a remote service - then your app can just get the rendered score from the net. That would be totally compatible with GPL. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: [announcement] Elysium - LilyPond IDE for Eclipse
Regarding the question about why implement yet another editing environment for LilyPond: I also understand and agree with the severity of the issues of proliferation of technologies and splitting of effort. But I did it mainly because it's fun. :) I could argue about the advantages of Eclipse (I will dedicate a section for this on the website), but I don't want any flame wars about technology choices, and of course it has its drawbacks too (especially the complexity). Besides being fun, it has dogfooding purposes: I use Eclipse constantly and have to edit sheet music frequently, so the integration aim was kind of obvious for me. YMMV. :) I think in this case we would need to create a LilyPond API for Java kind of project to share as much code as we can. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Bert, I'm curious what you mean by this comment. \p does not mean low volume but low velocity? Do you mean you use (when you play an instrument) a low velocity (air velocity, velocity of striking a key or drum, velocity of bowing, etc.) in order to create a low volume (sound level) and so it's the velocity that you have to control? I definitely talk about playing a keyboard instrument. It is quite easy to feel the difference between volume and velocity if you think about that: When you see p in the score, you play with less force on the keys, with lower velocity. When you see ff in the score, you play with much force on the keys, with high velocity. But you don't touch the volume control in either case. I suppose :) Bert ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Lilypond vs Score
No, that's not true. Score is like a notation drawing program, so you have very precise control over the musical elements' positions. If you create a simple score, LilyPond's output is clearly superior. If you are creating a complicated one, than Score becomes a hand-engraving tool. In that case YOU must produce the superior engraving. Which is surely possible with LilyPond - with less effort I think.

Re: LilyPond on Linux
Staying in Windows, you can run a Windows install of Lilypond, and add to it jEdit with the LilypondTool plugin. The advantages are a single computing environment, and jEdit+Lilytool gives the same functionality as Frescobaldi, including the link from .PDF to input. I wouldn't say same functionality as in some ways LilyPondTool provides you actually more features. You don't get the Rumour midi app, But you get a virtual piano with MIDI input support.

Re: off-topic somewhat: installing jedit/lilypondtool with no internet connection?
Yes, by default the jEdit settings folder is c:\documents and settings\username\.jedit Under that there is a file called properties - this contains all your individual settings. The jars folder contains all the plugins. So generally you need only two of these to replicate the same installation elsewhere.

That would be the easiest thing to do, if it'll actually work afterwards. Yes, I think the settings folder is your .jedit folder in this case. You could install it while online, then pull off the ethernet cable, uninstall, and try to install again from the files while offline. Can't install it offline, the computer I need it installed on is in a location with no internet access.
