Hi,

as opposed to the lsr-snippet you've put the call into \with

Then you need to delete the context-setting, i.e.
\with {
...
\override StaffSymbol.stencil ...
...
}
will work.

I prefer to use convert-ly -ed here.

‘-d, --diff-version-update’
 increase the ‘\version’ string only if the file has actually been
 changed.  In that case, the version header will correspond to the
 version after the last actual change.  An unstable version number
 will be rounded up to the next stable version number unless that
 would exceed the target version number.  Without this option, the
 version will instead reflect the last _attempted_ conversion.

Why use that?  Because if there is no necessity to changing the file,
leaving it at the old number increases the likelihood that _if_ the
convert-ly script is improved at some later point of time, your files
have a chance to get the improved conversion.

I know the problem is now solved, but there is a reason worth knowing, 
why this did now work before.


If you don't have the option 'Save document if possible' in LilyPond 
settings, and you press Ctrl+M on a modified document, or on a new 
document you have not saved yet, then lilypond is run on a temporary file.


That's why the MIDI file is not overwritten.

Please set the option to always save, of get used to the key sequence 
Ctrl+S,Ctrl+M every time.

Hi,

I suspect this is a Unix vs. Windows line ending issue. Maybe you can
either run some utility like dos2unix (or whatever is available for
windows these days) prior to running convert-ly, or confirm which line
terminators are used before and after running convert-ly via some
hexdump utility. Again, I'm out of the loop what the cool kids are using
for this purpose on windows nowadays.

All the best,
Martin

Re: Problems generating MIDI

2020-03-15 Thread Knute Snortum
It sounds like you're using Frescobaldi, not just LilyPond.

So clarify this for me.  You compile your LilyPond code and it
produces a MIDI file?  Then the second time you compile there is no
MIDI file?  Or is it that you can't *play* the MIDI file the second
time?

Makefile document improvement

2020-03-15 Thread foxfanfare
Hi all,

I'm currently learning the use of Makefile and how to automate the creation
of lilypond files. In the process, it's important to keep a clean repertory
structure, as suggested in the documentation 
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/usage/make-and-makefiles.html
  

However, I had problems when generating some midi files when you want them
to be placed automatically in the appropriate folder. The documentation
suggests this code:

# The pattern rule to create PDF and MIDI files from a LY input file.
# The .pdf output files are put into the `PDF' subdirectory, and the
# .midi files go into the `MIDI' subdirectory.
%.pdf %.midi: %.ly
$(LILY_CMD) $<; \   # this line begins with a tab
if test -f "$*.pdf"; then \
mv "$*.pdf" PDF/; \
fi; \
if test -f "$*.midi"; then \
mv "$*.midi" MIDI/; \
fi

But if you have a bookoutputname set in your .ly file (for instance if you
want multiple midi files within the same file), this code won't work because
the midi file name won't match the original *.ly name and the generated
files will stay at the root folder. After some time thinking about that
problem (I'm not a bash expert at all), I came to this solution:

%.pdf %.midi: %.ly
$(LILY_CMD) $<; \   # this line begins with a tab
  for file in *; do \
if [[ $$file == *.pdf ]]; then \
  mv $$file PDF/; \
fi; \
if [[ $$file == *.midi ]]; then \
  mv $$file MIDI/; \
fi; \
  done

What do you think, would it be a good idea to update the example in the
documentation or not?

Convert-ly adds line breaks

2020-03-15 Thread Mark Mathias
Running Frescobaldi 3.1.1 "Update with convert-ly" from LilyPond 2.18.2 to
2.20.0 added an extra line break to every line of the .ly file (Windows10).
I can strip them out of course, but is there a way to avoid this? Couldn't
find anything in Frescobaldi preferences that covers this.

Thank you,
Mark
