Hi. I have LilyPond 1.6.5. installed (Cygwin) and have tried it for the first time. Look nice, spent quite some time to get things working out. I have some questions, things I'm not able to find out how to 'implement'.
Enclosed below is my program. 1: The first 3 notes (a triple) should be played as one quarter note. I thought that I would have to specify "\times 2/3", however doing that results in the whole piece being shifted (result all wrong). 2: The first "\grace" note should be right in front of the first Es (in the second bar of the piece), however it is printed as the last note in the first bar. 3: How should I use the "\partial"? I doesn't seem to be needed in this example. 4: Bar number 10 is the final should have the mark "Fine", however when entering a non-number in the "volta" statement, LilyPond generates an error. 5: Bar number 19 should be the first bar of section marked Trio. It is in a new key (2 b's while the rest has 3 b's). The change in "b" indication ends up at the end of bar 18 and again a "\grace" note which should be the first in the 19th bar is placed in a separate bar. Actually the repeats should be something like ":|:". 6: Should LilyPond be able to handle national characters ? Hope someone is able to help me out. Really nice program, however somewhat hard to get started. Please answer to me directly.
