Re: Consistent vertical alignment of annotations, disable time signiture

In compiler technology, ‘object code’ refers to the code generated by a compiler, containing the same semantical information as the ’source code’ that has been compiled, but in a form better suited for the task at hand. Quite often, the goal is execution by a physical or virtual processor.

Hi Robert, EasyABC, the one I am using, is open source. Would you like me to investigate? I think we are probably off topic by now. Andrew ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Consistent vertical alignment of annotations, disable time signiture

Hi Robert, Having just learned ABC, I see that it supports rolls, but not all the Larsen ornament notation. I see no reason why ABC can't be extended - there are many, dozens in fact, ABC editors that are open source. Worth looking into. It you can produce a trill in ABC, you can produce a cut.

Re: Consistent vertical alignment of annotations, disable time signiture

The best example of the leaky abstraction problem I can think of right now are actually visual HTML editors. HTML is very complicated and follows a 'WYSIWYM' model similar to LaTeX, however the visual editors try to force this into a 'WYSIWYG' model which simply does not work, especially when

Hello Robert, Speaking as a programmer myself with over forty years of experience, and an advanced lilypond users, I can categorically assert that lilypond is not trying to be 'clever'. This is an utter misunderstanding. Lilypond is however trying to engrave music to the highest possible

Thanks, I have a vague familiarity with lisps, but have never used scheme. I'm not certain how to visually parse a statment like \Staff \omit TimeSignature. It kind of looks like \Staff is a function taking two arguments, where \omit is either a constant or a function that returns a constant, and

Hi Robert, As I mentioned and others have said, there is no substitute for studying the NR and the Learning Manual, in detail, exhaustively. It's a powerful program with enormous control, unlike typical GUI programs. It's no different to learning to play tin whistle. Nobody would expect to learn

Consistent vertical alignment of annotations, disable time signiture

So far I have the result attached, which is close to what I want, but I haven't found a clear example of how to get the two text annotations to align vertically. I'd also like to move both up a bit. If possible I also want to pad the gap between the first note and the bar, so it is the same as
