v.2.6.4 winxp I have a 1200 line file (so far) and it was compiling in 2 minutes or less and now it has begun not to compile at all. Is there something I can look for that would explain this without submitting the entire file? Secondly I just entered a series of 2 measure exercises

For some reason, LilyPond creates new contexts for each of the blocks. Just add a \new Voice or \new Staff to get wbat you want: \score{ \new Voice { \foo \bar ... } By the way, \bar is already occupied as a command, so you have to rename that variable to something else. /Mats Ralph

A second question is about repeats and alternative endings In the examples in the documentation is an example that would do the first alternative three times, and the second the fourth (page 62 in the manual for version 2.2.0) I was wondering if it could easily be done the other way around: the

Erwin, I won't touch the chords question. I always hover over the manual whenever I want to do something more than basic chords. For the ritarando, I would use a \mark instead of a text object. If you are using 1.7.x you can use the new \markup syntax to select an italic font. It is much

I can't answer your first question, but the second question was a problem I also had. To make G/B, you would use g/+b I believe for C7/G you would use c:7/+g For Am7/E, you would use a:m7/+e I hope that helps! Dave On mar, 2003-02-25 at 18:27, Erwin Dieterich wrote: From a beginner two
