Dear friends,
after a long, long time I've tried lilypond again.
A lot of things don't work as expected. I'll start with a few, and
others will come later if time permits. Of course, my critics are
meant constructively to further improve lilypond...
. please mention in the `INSTALL' file that `autoconf' must be run
after patches have been applied -- shortly after I've sent the `bug
report' I've remembered this :-)
. saying
lilypond -o foo.tex foo.ly
creates a file called `foo.tex.tex' -- is this really intentional?
. `make doc' as advertised in the INSTALL file doesn't work. Saying
`make dvi' in Documentation/tex stops with an error (I'm currently
investigating)...
. the second lilypond code snippet from the file
lilypond-overview.doc, lilypond-overview-0.1.1.ly, is this:
\include "paper16.ly"
\paper{\paper_sixteen linewidth = -1.\cm;
castingalgorithm = \Gourlay;}
\score{\notes\relative c
{\context Staff
<\context Voice
{ c''8 c''8 } >}}
I would expect two c'' eights, but I get a c'' followed by a
c''''...
Werner
