Hello, my name is Michiel and I will admit first that I am very new to
lilypond.
The examples shown look great, so I was about to give it a shot... the
first few lines of music went well, so I felt ready to put my first
piece of music I ever wrote into lilypond.
It's a piece for organ and the

music too much...

Hello everybody,
I hope this question is not very hard, but I have it with a few songs now:
when I create a part like this
foo = \notes

I feel expert enough I would try devel versions too... so, please...

Hello all,
If I'm correct (which is always the question) one can add lyrics to a
midi file so they can be showed during playback. Kind of like karaoke
style... (if the player supports it of course)
when I write a song with lilypond including lyrics, and generate a
midifile ou tof it, however,

I found out that Lilypond has troubles with spaces in directory names...
I had a similar problem once, and it got away when I removed spaces from
the directory names... this was under linux, but I assume the same goes
for Windoze... D:\Documents_and_settings... are you sure that the spaces
Hello everyone,
I've been looking all over the internet, so I know chances are small...
but one who does not try, will never score...
But until I found lilypond I wrote my music in a program named
Toccata. Is there any chance that there's an import filter for toccata
(.toc) files into lilypond?
I have this sheet of music with the following set-up:
Music (in two staffs), Lyrics and Chrods.
In pure essence I get it right on the paper, however the chords are
below the music (violin staff, above the bass staff) just above the lyrics.
What I'd like most however is to have the chords above
The following is a snippet from a song I want to enter in Lilypond

However the notes within are skipped due to a melisma? (I think

but instead that part is skipped...

Hello everybody,
I am trying to install Lilypond 2.4 for Slackware 10 and found a package
for it on the net.
it states that I should install ec-mftraced-fonts package, so I
downloaded it and tried to install ec-mftraced-fonts-1.0.9
first from source, but installing that one resulted in alot of

Take a look at the manual here:

Hi Jean-marc,
Much depends on which language you're used to.
If you're familiar with C or C++ I suppose you should use that
(gcc-compiler). If you are more familiar with Pascal, you should try and
install the Free Pascal Compiler, probably in combination with Lazarus
(A free Delphi clone)

You did upgrade to 2.4 already?
You did convert the piece with "convert-ly v2_2_piece.ly

Remember that RPM is also the extention Real Player uses.
It could be that Mozilla thinks it's an audio file and then finds that
