Re: PS failure with 1.6.6
Hi, Yes, I did a make install, and music-drawing-routines.ps appears not only in /usr/local/share/lilypond/tex but also in /usr/local/share/lilypond/ps. I ran texhash just to be on the safe side (which actually I never did with previous version installs, and never had problems) but still get the same error message. As with other version installs, I placed lilypond-profile in my $PATH and sourced it to set the tree. Could it possibly be my version of xdvi? It's 22.58. Mats Bengtsson wrote: You say that you compiled the program yourself but you didn't say how you installed it. If you did a make install, the file should be placed below share/lilypond/tex/, where teTeX will find it unless you've fiddled a lot with your texmf.cnf or forgot to run texhash after the installation. /Mats Hello-- Having just downloaded and compiled the 1.6.6 sourcecode, I ran ly2dvi -P on an .ly sourcefile without error messages and got a surprise when I tried to view the results with xdvi. It loaded with this error message: "Cannot find PostScript file for inclusion in document: music-drawing-routines.ps" The .ps file produced by the same ly2dvi run loaded perfectly with gv. The same thing happens with all my .ly sourcefiles. Is there a diagnostic I can run to track down the problem? This did not happen with 1.6.5, and I was careful to run the font cleaning script after installation. Thank you, my friends.

Re: Centering text spanners under a note

Re: common rests between two voices in one staff
Hi, first of all thanks for the quick answers! However after reading the fine manual I found a far simpler solution to the problem which might be interesting to those who helped me(and others) as well: simply set the #'maximum-rest-count property of the staff. e.g.(typical SATB piece without accompaniment) in the paper section: \score { ... \paper \translator { \StaffContext RestCollision \override #'maximum-rest-count = #1 } } } Bad enough with the next piece I ran into the next problem: to anyone with experience with that maximum-rest-count thingie: doesn't that affect multimeasure rests? how can I make it to? tia Klaus ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Slurred chords
Hi, I'd like to know where it is possible to write the starting-slur mark "(": inside a chord, next to any of its notes, or after the closing-chord mark ">". Moreover, perhaps I've found a bug if I write a slurred chord at the very beggining of a piece. From: - \score { \notes { \clef violin \time 4/4 b' ) g' } } - I get this error: - Interpreting music... /home/guido/Lilypond/prova_accordi.ly:4:10: warning: unterminated slur: b' ) g' /home/guido/Lilypond/prova_accordi.ly:4:20: warning: can't find start of slur: b' ) g' - which doesn't come if I put a not before the chord. On the other hand, I cannot write at all something like "( )c" in any place in the piece, which I seem I was used to do with Lilypond 1.4. But I'm not sure about this, perhaps I don't remember well. I'm using Lilypond 1.6.0 for Debian3.0/ppc. Thank you, Guido ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Centering text spanners under a note
I am typesetting an old edition of Mozart quartets, and sometimes dynamics appear in parentheses. I manage to write these with --- \score { \context Staff { \notes \relative c' { c1_#'(columns (large "(") (dynamic "p") (large ")")) } } } --- but the "(p)" string is not rightly centered above the note (it is a bit at the right because of the parentheses). I tried with the "edge-text" of the Text Spanner grob, but without success (brackets are not shown at all): --- \score { \context Staff { \notes \relative c' { \once \property Voice.TextSpanner \override #'edge-text = #'("(" .
