Other doc strings were written by Han-Wen and Jan, so don't feel that they need to be in "nice English". We're never going to have so much doc help that we can be picky about this kind of thing in the IR. Please produce a full patch for this.

Therefore "bezier-sandwich". I get it. However, perhaps you'll agree with me when I say this could be better documented; besides, by documenting it we could also help users to tweak these stencils themselves. Currently, the only stencil property that is really well documented is text-interface, which is already very useful as it allows users to replace anything by any text or musicglyph they want; if other stencil possibilities were documented as well, users could even replace a TrillSpanner by a slur, and tweak this slur the way they'd want :) (side-question: how the hell can we achieve what Haipeng is asking for??? -- but that's another story) Cheers, Valentin ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel

There was also the idea of a different way to include files and directories in a main .ly file; http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=391 It's not really related to the topic, but I just felt like mentioning it :) Cheers, Valentin ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel

Therefore "bezier-sandwich". What about a thing called doubleSlurs that creates slurs on top of and under a musical expression. That's a real sandwich. :-) OT: Is it possible to tweak just one of the slurs in doubleSlurs? Does override change both simultaneously? -Risto ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel

Re: Proposal of feature: inline options
All the settings that can be done with lilypond -d... can be done also within LilyPond using #(ly:set-option ...) Run lilypond -dhelp to get a complete list of these options. For example, you can do #(ly:set-option 'preview #t) However, there are other settings that cannot be done within the input file, for example setting the output format to png. I guess that at least for the output format selection it would be very easy to add this possibility. I'm not sure about all other options. Perhaps the input file isn't read early enough to handle all of them (just speculating). /Mats Francisco Vila wrote: Csound does it, for example.

Right. So if I like, I can do this: #(set! *random-state* (seed->random-state (getpid))) #(define (random-auto-beaming-function context dir test) (or (= dir START) (= (random 2) 0))) \set Score.autoBeamCheck = #random-auto-beaming-function ...for some quite random beaming.
