Re: Problems with lilypond-invoke-editor
Sorry, I'll try and be more specific. I don't use a desktop environment either, so I normally open emacs from a keybinding that uses the spawn command in herbstluftwm (which I think is basically a bash exec). Then after I compile a lilypond file with C-c C-c (and choose lilypond) then choose view, zathura opens and when I point and click it gets those errors. If I just close that instance of zathura, and then open a new one (from dmenu), then point and click works. I haven't had time to try xpdf yet, but knowing this I can adjust and open zathura by itself instead of however emacs opens it through the command and things work. Just a change of habit.

I would try with xpdf, because it has a simpler configuration/mechanism than viewers like zathura and evince. If xpdf works correctly, I would suspect that there might by more Gnome-y stuff required to get zathura to work when launched by emacs with ^C^C, rather than by Gnome. But that's only a guess. Would you be able to adjust your workflow to begin by running zathura on the PDF, and just clicking on an item in the score to launch emacs? (Perhaps that's what you're already doing.) Cheers, David.
Re: Problems with lilypond-invoke-editor
Well I fixed having multiple lilyponds installed, and at first I thought it
worked. Zathura and xpdf at least work when I open them separately. I guess
it's a minor annoyance, but if I open zathura from the C-c C-c part of
emacs, then it doesn't work and I get those errors. I have no clue why that
would make a difference, but it seems to be the case. Open the file in a
viewer separately and point and click works just fine. Use the lilypond
command view and it doesn't. I guess I haven't tried to see if other pdf
viewers work from the command menu, but it seems like it wouldn't be a
zathura problem.

Re: Problems with lilypond-invoke-editor
Hmm it could be. I downloaded the source code so I could get images in the
info files. I noticed yesterday actually that the source version was going
to /use/local . I'll try and set the prefix correctly when I compile and
see if I can get just one version of LP.
Thanks for catching that!

I'm not sure why you have /usr/local/bin/ occurring in your error
messages as I don't see any string "local/" on the page:
https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/lilypond/files/
Is there any possibility that you have multiple versions of LP
installed, and that one version is calling another?
BTW you can bisect the problem and test lilypond-invoke-editor
separately at the command line just by typing:
$ lilypond-invoke-editor textedit://:LL:CC:CC
is a .ly file, LL a line number, CC a column number
(actual numbers not important), as in:
$ lilypond-invoke-editor textedit:///tmp/blue.ly:50:10:10
Either of:
$ type lilypond-invoke-editor
$ which lilypond-invoke-editor
will tell you which executable is being run. But if your Gnome3
settings include a path for that executable, you obviously need
to test it with that path.
Cheers,
David.
Problems with lilypond-invoke-editor
Hello,
I've been using frescobaldi mostly because I like the point and click
functionality. I just discovered today that you can configure that to work
with other PDF viewers and editors, which I would like to do, since I keep
trying to use emacs bindings inside frescobaldi
Anyways, I thought that I had everything figured out. But when I try and
click I get some stuff showing up in an emacs buffer.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/lilypond-invoke-editor", line 122, in
editor_commands = [list(map(replace_template, cmd)) for cmd in
editor_commands]
^
File "/usr/local/bin/lilypond-invoke-editor", line 122, in
editor_commands = [list(map(replace_template, cmd)) for cmd in
editor_commands]
File "/usr/local/bin/lilypond-invoke-editor", line 79, in replace_template
return template % {
ValueError: unsupported format character ':' (0x3a) at index 25
Is this a problem with the program or my config? I'm using arch linux,
herbstluftwm window manager (followed the settings for GNOME 3 to get a
desktop entry, otherwise it would only launch firefox), zathura as PDF
viewer, emacs as LYEDITOR.
Any help would be greatly appreciated so I can stop doing C-x C-s every
time I want to save!
