I'm trying to lay out a fairly simple score to Oh Susanna for a friend,
and have received the following utterly unhelpful output from the
interpreter. The resulting PDF includes the first section of the song
(which is entered as a discrete block), correctly-engraved. Then it has a
blank measure,

Can somebody help me to understand what's going on here?
In case of a repeat with alternatives, you can't any longer use the
\addlyrics shortcut; you have to explicitly create a voice, name it,
and link the lyrics to it using
\lyricsto voicename.
Thanks Valentin,
So, looking at what you sent me, it looks like I can \addlyrics to the
repeated music, but not to the alternative(s). Is that right?
Also, can you explain exactly what the grouping symbols do? I've
tried to use them similarly to how the examples in the documentation do, but

I'll chalk it up to other errors fouling strange and
seemingly-unrelated thigns.

Hello all,
I have a problem whose solution eludes me. In general, when you have a
partial measure, the bar count does not get incremented. When you have a
piece that contains a section that ends on a partial measure and then the
next section begins with a pick up (partial measure as well), it
Hi,
I´m developing a software for managing songbooks. As you can imaginge,
my typesetting engine is ... LilyPond. To produce a songbook I use
lilypond-book together with LaTeX and this worked quite good until
now. I worked with a volume of about 10 to 15 songs.
