Anything you write in the header fields is sent directly to
LaTeX which formats the titling. So, this is really a LaTeX
question, not a LilyPond question.
In ordinary LaTeX, the solution is to escape the with a
backslash: \
However, in the LilyPond input, you have to escape the backslash
once more, so you should write \\ to get a in the printed output.

Re: using in title
Hi Jean-Marc,
The problem you face here, is due to the fact that lily doesn't print the
text, but let's LaTeX do the printing. The '' symbol is a reserved symbol,
which means that it has a special function in LaTex. To get the '' symbol
printed one has to place a \ right before the '' symbol.
Thus, the corrected header should look like this:
\header {piece=Les Galans \ les Dames}
And now everything works as intended! :D

I have looked an explanation without success. I've inferred that the

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.2/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond-

first one will apply to eighth notes and the second to 16th and
shorter.
/Mats
Mats-
The above documentation states:
beamed-lengths (list):
'(3.5 3.5 3.5 4.5 5.0)
list of stem lengths given beam multiplicity .
As stated in my previous response, the values of (list) are the source
of my confusion. I haven't found a clear explanation of how values of
(list) are applied. The example (which, I assume, has default values)
shows a list of five numbers. The example which I followed had a list
of 3 values. Unfortunately, I can't recall whether it came from the
manual or the archives.
I was surprised that an adjustment was required in the piece I was
coding-
\acciaccatura { af,16[ af'] } af c gf'8\arpeggio buried the af' in
the bar. I'm assuming it had something to do with the chord which
followed. It is certainly an advantage that Lilypond allows
adjustments!

It could be that I didn't manage to install it, it took about an hour, I don't know how long it's supposed to take. Also, when I go to the Start menu and so on, there isn't any sign of LilyPond anywhere. I don't know if it's supposed to be there along with the things that you click on to get to Word etc. (not the icons on the desktop, but inside the menu--did I mention I'm not very good at computers?), but it'd certainly help, because I don't know how I'm supposed to get access to the programme otherwise.

What I'm wondering is: is there a variable I can set somewhere to get an arbitrary number of staff groups per page and have lilypond handle the rest of the formatting?

Second: isn't there a newsgroup about Lilypond? Seems much more economic and practical to me than this list where 90% of the mails I get aren't interesting, as I don't understand them anyway (being a newbie)... I don't see how it would be different from wading through the same amount of emails, but gmane.org may be what you are looking for. -- Feri. ___ lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
