Hi Abraham,

Now you’re talking. I knew I was missing on out something… Thanks.

Maybe, but then putting them on IMSLP?

I suppose.

A big advantage to lilypond

2016-03-21 Thread Redwood (Daniel)
Hi all,

I’m converting from Sibelius. Not a simple, quick project. I have probably more 
than a hundred scores in Sibelius. So I’m looking for reasons to do this, aside 
from the difficulty of their licensing scheme.

One thing I love about lilypond: when I find a file on IMSLP with the source. 
Then I can make my own modifications.

But I wonder: why aren’t more lilypond authors posting more of their sources to 
IMSLP? And is there some way to find the lilypond source files — the pieces 
that have lilypond sources. I found some through their postings on a French 
site (can’t think of the name now), but it’s on about a dozen pieces, none of 
which interest me.

Music I’m going to perform, I usually typeset anyway, partly as a way to learn 
the music. But much of what I play is for my enjoyment, and I don’t rescore it. 
Also, much music like Beethoven sonatas are a great deal of trouble to 
score/typeset.

This is not really a question, but more a note to say that I get how important 
this is for sharing music. Sibelius scores could also be shared, but it’s kind 
of rude to ask someone to pay for it.

I’m using Frescobaldi now as a front-end. It has a number of useful features. I 
also tried plugs in for vim and Atom, but was frustrated with those.

Thanks, Yes, I got this from others as well. Perhaps I need to cc the group so 
I won’t get an individual response from every user?

Re: Initial grace notes

2016-03-19 Thread Redwood (Daniel)
Hi Thomas Morley,

Perfect! 

bug2.ly now has:

 \grace {s8 s8} R2. |

Now I get harmless warnings, but I wonder if there’s anything I should do about 
them?

Interpreting music...
MIDI output to `bug.midi'...
programming error: Going back in MIDI time.
continuing, cross fingers
programming error: Going back in MIDI time.
continuing, cross fingers
programming error: Going back in MIDI time.
continuing, cross fingers

This on 3 bars of music, which look nice now:


I’m switching from Sibelius which I’ve used for about 15 years. Every single 
time I had to do anything with licensing, I needed support, and this time, even 
after support, I could purchase the product, though I was willing to pay. Funny 
thing is, years ago, I was the sole developer of flexLM, which is what they use 
for licensing, at least in part. Payback I suppose.
