Hi List,
glad I'm not the only one with this use case! As I understand the
situation it is a non-trivial matter to get properly implemented.
My offer to sponsor this still holds (especially if it gets done in
the next two months) but it seems no one with the necessary skills
will implement it,
Hi all,
any LilyPonders or music LaTeXers in Berne or in a reasonable distance

I'm going to lobby LilyPond and LaTeX at a conference on Digital
Edition and could use some argumentative assistance in the audience ;-)
I want to create an exercise for some beginning composition students, where
I will provide some short melody fragments sprinkled through a longer
score. Most measures will be empty, but I want LilyPond to leave enough
space for the students to write in their own notes. I looked in the
notation
Hi James,
here is how I normaly do it (you can of course wrap this into a

FWIW, I spent multiple hours in install hell trying to get a homebrew

You have to put the key information redundantly in each instrumentalist’s
music.
A better [i.e, more maintainable and “object-oriented”] approach is this:
global = {
\key a \minor s1*8
\key e \minor s1*4
\key c \major s1*10
}
Frescobaldi is not part of the LilyPond delivery, so why should it be covered
in the LilyPond docs?

Fair enough. Sorry to be cranky, I had a bad experience with the lilypond

Well, the latter. But if you search for jazz chords you find a pretty
good function. I haven't tried it, but I may soon as I have wanted to use
