Re: music font
Hey, I have the same problem installing version 1.5.57 and 1.5.58 under
SuSE Linux 7.0 with Guile 1.4.1 installed. If I try the simplest file:
--
\score {
\notes \relative c' { c4 d e f | g1 }
}
--
then ly2dvi starts complaying about a wrong use of 'eval':
--
GNU LilyPond 1.5.58
Now processing: `test.ly'
Analisi...
Interpretazione della musica...[3]
Pre-elaborazione...
Calcolo delle posizioni della colonne...
paper output to `test.tex'...Backtrace:
0* [tex-output-expression # #]
1* [display ...
2* [eval # #]
ERROR: In procedure eval in expression
(my-eval-in-module expr this-module):
ERROR: Wrong number of arguments to #
--
This error happens also if I call `lilypond' directly, and also if I
use the `-f ps' or `-f pdftex' option (instead of `tex-output-
expression', it complains about `ps-output-expression' and 'pdftex-
output-expression' respectively). The problem seems to be in file
scm/tex.scm, lines 283-285:
--
(define-public (tex-output-expression expr port)
(display (my-eval-in-module expr this-module) port )
)
--
In fact, if I try to run `guile' and I execute this command (perfectly
legal: I took it from the "Scheme Revised^5 Report"):
--
(eval '(* 7 3) (current-module))
--
then `guile' will give the following error message:
--
standard input:1:1: In procedure eval in expression
(eval (quote #) (current-module)):
standard input:1:1: Wrong number of arguments to
#
ABORT: (wrong-number-of-args)
--
My guile accepts only two parameters for `eval':
--
(eval '(* 7 3))
--
prints 21.
So, I think the problem is in guile, not in lilypond. On my SuSE Linux
7.0 guile 1.3.x was installed. In order to use lilypond, I removed it
completely using the Yast installation program, then I installed guile
1.4.1 by unpacking the tarball under my home directory and creating the
binaries via a `./configure ; make ; make install' command. Is this
sufficient to install guile? The shipped INSTALL file is not very clear
about doing upgrades.
Also, should I (re)install a new version of SLIB? I found this
library in `/usr/lib/scheme/slib', but I do not know if it was
installed by SuSE a long time ago or by guile 1.4.1 today.
Thanks

Re: music font
I think I got the solution! The NEWS file shipped with Guile 1.5.6 says: ** Backward incompatible change: eval EXP ENVIRONMENT-SPECIFIER `eval' is now R5RS, that is it takes two arguments. The second argument is an environment specifier, i.e. either (scheme-report-environment 5) (null-environment 5) (interaction-environment) or any module. So, my guile 1.4.1 supports only the one-argument-syntax for `eval'. On the computer I am using here there is Guile 1.5.6, and there is no problem evaluating the same expression (eval '(* 7 3) (current-module)) which gives problems with guile 1.4.x So, I think the scm/tex.scm file was written for Guile 1.5.x, not for Guile 1.4.x (although the INSTALL.txt file shipped with Lilypond says 1.4 is good). I am at work now, but this evening I will try to install the 1.5.6 version on my home computer, and I will see what happen. I suggest you to do the same.

OK, what probably happens is that your newly compiled lilypond program reads the initialization files from a previous installation in /usr/share/lilypond/... Did you run 'make install' and where did it install the files? Do you have the same problem as Maurizio that not even ly2dvi works (having run 'make install')? However, this is a bug in the make files, since it should be possible to build a new version without removing an existing installation. The strange thing is that the Makefiles indeed set temporary environment variables that should solve problem. We discussed it on the mailing list some week ago and Han-Wen didn't manage to repeat the bug. Could you please try the following (assuming that you still have files from some older Lilypond version in /usr/share/lilypond/): - First of all, make sure that the environment variables $LILYPONDPREFIX and $LILYINCLUDE are undefined. If they were defined, we have hopefully found the problem. - Set the environment variable LILYPONDPREFIX to the full path of the lilypond-1.5.58/ directory and try to rerun the make command. - Set the environment variable LILYINCLUDE to "$LILYPONDPREFIX/ly" and try to rerun the make command. /Mats ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

If you run ly2dvi -V (verbose), you'll see:
! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [main memory size=1263001].
This often is caused by too many ledger lines. If you make note heads
transparent, you can easily spot the problem,
\score {
<
% transparent note head for debugging:
\property Score.NoteHead \override #'transparent = ##t
\property Score.skipBars = ##t

That won't work. You cannot in the same context have different styles
simultainously. You need to put the different notehead styles in
different threads:
bcc = {
\context Thread = xcircle
\property Thread.NoteHead \set #'style = #'xcircle
}
... etc.
Btw, I think that you should use the drum-notation-scheme demonstrated
in input/test/drums.ly
I am working on a "real" implementation - hopefully for 1.6, otherwise
later - but the notes themselves should be downwards compatible so the
changes needed to upgrade to the new system will be small and easy.

Text above staves
I am writing the second movement of Mozart's String Quartet KV387
("Minuetto"). This piece is made by two sections: the "Minuetto" and the
"Trio". At the end of the piece there is "Menuetto da capo". Well, I
want to write "Minuetto" and "Trio" once, and above the whole set of
staves, and "Menuetto da capo" below them. But if I place these texts in
the first violin staff, they will never be printed when extracting parts
for the second violin, the viola and the cello.
I took a look at Coriolan and at the two violin concerti by Bach, but I
found nothing suitable.

Use a Voice context.
Alternatively you could say something like
topmarks = \notes { s1*10^"Allegretto" s1*20^"Trio" s1*"Minuetto da capo" }

Okay then you cannot use the official drum notation scheme - or using it
would at least be very hard.
> ... I tried this, but it doesn't work :-(:
No you are right, I am sorry.
The problem is that a context setting only affects the innermost music
structure in which it occurs.
This means that in
{ { \context Thread=foo a } b }
the a will be typeset in thread foo, but the b won't.
I cannot see an easy solution for your problem, but a hack would be to
translate accidentals into notehead types. This should be okay as
accidentals are not needed when typesetting drums.
What I mean is that I could fairly easy create a scheme function
allowing you to say i.e. "ceses" to get a triangle-c, "ces" to get a
diamond c, "c" to get a default c, "cis" to get a crossed c and "cisis"
to get a xcircled c.
Would that be sufficient for you?

Hmm! I don't know ? What about "f"? -- "feses? What if I implement - say - 10
different note heads ?
To shorten this: LilyPond is a very good typsetter for classical music.
And it can deal with simple (no chords) drum staffs.
In contrast to all other free musical typsetters it has
musical knowlegde. I would say: A hack only because of
this case is no good idea. Perhaps if you'll later
think more about jazz/pop/... you should implement
a really sophisticated drum-chord-solution. And then I'll incorporate
this into LilyPond export. So long the user has to live with
some exportation restrictions.
--
I think 2 other things are more important:
1.) It should be possible to connect 2 of 3 notes of a chord:
2.) And from version-?.?.? on in staff context is no tie at all:
StaffA = \notes\relative c' {
\clef violin
~
}
\score {
\context Staff \StaffA
}
Bug or feature ?

Yes and that is why I don't like your idea of defining the drums purely as "position, note-head-style". Later moving i.e. the bass drum to another position would be very hard - the user is stuck with the drums layout that the composer has selected, and producing sensible midi output will be impossible because lilypond don't know which positions/heads that corresponds to which midi-drums. > I would say: A hack only because of > this case is no good idea.
