--- Begin Message ---Package: songwrite Version: 0.12b-4 Severity: important Hello ! I just downloaded songwrite, because I needed to read some guitar pro files. They read perfectly well, there's just the problem that the export in lilypond doesn't work at all. With the most simple file : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <song version="0.12" lang="en"> <title>Fourmond's song</title> <authors>Fourmond</authors> <copyright>Copyright 2004 by Fourmond</copyright> <comments></comments> <bars> <bar rythm="4/4" tempo="60" syncope="0"/> </bars> <playlist> </playlist> <partition volume="255" muted="0" chorus="0" instrument="24" capo="0" reverb="0"> <header>Guitar</header> <view type="tablature"> <strings> <string pitch="64" notation="top"/> <string pitch="59" notation="top"/> <string pitch="55" notation="top"/> <string pitch="50" notation="down"/> <string pitch="45" notation="down"/> <string pitch="40" notation="down"/> </strings> </view> <notes> <note pitch="65" time="0.0" duration="1.0" volume="204" string="0"/> <note pitch="41" time="0.0" duration="1.0" volume="204" string="5"/> <note pitch="51" time="0.0" duration="1.0" volume="204" string="3"/> <note pitch="56" time="0.0" duration="1.0" volume="204" string="2"/> <note pitch="56" time="1.0" duration="1.0" volume="204" string="2"/> <note pitch="46" time="1.0" duration="1.0" volume="204" string="4"/> </notes> </partition> </song> I get this for an export to lilypond : \include "italiano.ly" \score { < \context StaffGroup = staff < \context TabStaff = staff < \property Staff.instrument = "Guitar" \notes \context TabVoice = staffVoice { \property TabVoice.Stem \set #'direction = #'-1 \time 4/4 lad,4\5 } > > > \paper { \translator { \StaffGroupContext } } } When I try to run lilypond (or when songwrite tries to run it by itself, for the ps export), I get lots of error messages : /home/fourmond/Download/Biniou.ly:5:9: error: syntax error, unexpected CONTEXT, expecting NOTENAME_P ITCH or DRUM_PITCH or '>': \contex t StaffGroup = staff < /home/fourmond/Download/Biniou.ly:5:30: error: syntax error, unexpected '<': \context StaffGroup = staff < /home/fourmond/Download/Biniou.ly:6:30: error: syntax error, unexpected '<': \context TabStaff = staff < /home/fourmond/Download/Biniou.ly:7:15: error: unknown escaped string: `\property': \property Staff.instrument = "Guitar" /home/fourmond/Download/Biniou.ly:9:11: error: syntax error, unexpected NOTES: \note s \context TabVoice = staffVoice { /home/fourmond/Download/Biniou.ly:9:44: error: syntax error, unexpected '{': \notes \context TabVoice = staffVoice { /home/fourmond/Download/Biniou.ly:10:17: error: unknown escaped string: `\property': \property TabVoice.Stem \set #'direction = #'-1 /home/fourmond/Download/Biniou.ly:19:15: error: unknown escaped string: `\translator': \translator { /home/fourmond/Download/Biniou.ly:19:16: error: syntax error, unexpected '{', expecting '=': \translator { /home/fourmond/Download/Biniou.ly:19:14: warning: Braces don't match: \translato r { Failed files: Biniou.ly I bet that is due to a mismatch between the actual version of lilypond which songwrite handles and the one which is available under debian. But still, that's a pity that I can't print the songs which I would like ! Thanks for considering this report.
