Re: Trouble getting started on w2k

It seems that you read the Tutorial for LilyPond version 2.4 (which is the latest stable version), but you have installed version 2.2. If you read the Tutorial for your version, it will work much better! Just follow the link to the Documentation of version 2.2.6 at www.lilypond.org. /Mats Joel

Re: help with \remove

It's probably easier to use the LaTeX file notepaper.tex that I have on http://www.s3.kth.se/~mabe/musical.html Otherwise, you could try to set the property #'transparent=##t for the objects you want to remove. /Mats D Josiah Boothby wrote: trying to make manuscript paper, but I can't get the
