ec-fonts in 2.6, was: convert-ly problem
... You're welcome to reinstate the ec fonts as your private defaults, though. Well, this (I mean reinstating the ec fonts as my private defaults) is what I would like to do, and also asked how this could be done in this list three weeks ago. I got, however, no answer. Could you, or someone else explain how to do it? I believe in the above code Times New Roman, Helvetica, Courier stand for the serif, sans-serif and fixed width fonts respectively. What should I replace them with to have the ec-fonts as defaults? Imruska Hello list, I am also interested in an explanation (for Windows/Cygwin).

Re: Tie a tremolando - tremolo tied to chord
Thanks for the hint, I've added a version of it to the manual. /Mats Steve D wrote: A while back I asked about the possibility of, and then sponsored, a feature to tie grace note and other arpeggios to a following chord. Han-Wen created the \set tieWaitForNote = ##t (or ##f, as the case may require) feature as a result, which greatly simplified the piano score I was notating at the time. I have found another real-world practical use for the tieWaitForNote feature: tieing a tremolando (tremolo) chord to a following chord. The following bit of lilypond code for the upper staff of a piano score: \set tieWaitForNote = ##t \repeat tremolo 12 { ef'32~ ef,~ } ef' ef,4 \set tieWaitForNote = ##f df df,4 c c,4 produces the result shown in the PNG image attached to this email (tied-tremolando-example.png).

vim mode
Hi everyone, I am switching my default editor back to vim (from emacs). I want to make sure that I am getting the best possible results with the syntax highlighting. I have a dir - ~./vim/syntax with one file 'lilypond.vim'. This file has a date of 2002 (in the first few lines). I note that there are quite a few *.vim files in the /usr/share/lilypond/2.4.5/vim/ directories. Do I need to do anything to the various files or are they picked up automatically by y lilypond.vim file?

Re: font finding problem
Hi, after having wasted a real lot of hours trying to install 2.6.3 which got me deep into package dependency hell and forced me to update at least a dozen other programs as well, I finally had to give up and try 2.4.4 instead, for which there is an RPM from SuSE 9.3. After having been able to install that with all dependencies working, I got the same error as Johan and wonder if there is a solution, because I also do have the font on my system. As I say, installing 2.6.3 is not an option for me at this time, because it would in fact force me to upgrade my whole system (running SuSE 9.1), which I can't do in the near future. There must be a possibility to tell Lilypond where the font is - it's in its own directory tree, after all. Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially because I am new to Lilypond and would really like to try it out.

Re: Mac OSX and Text Editors
I have used TextWrangler with Lilypond on OS X Panther for some time. Stephan, I think that Mats is right that TextWrangler is probably using Mac line endings in your files. I set Default Line Breaks to UNIX when I installed Text Wrangler and use UTF-8 encoding and have not had any problems with Lilypond files. Go to Preferences Text Files: Saving to set up the UNIX line endings and default encoding.

Re:
1 - How to substitute a notehead of an eigthnote to a notehead of a halfnote? I've found another (perhaps better), but also interesting (for me who now's going to understand Scheme and LilyPond better): \once \override Voice.NoteHead #'glyph-name-procedure = #(lambda (a b) 1 ) The number is from the end of noteheads.s1, see the Feta font in the manual. The (a b) is the parameters that is needed for the glyph-name-procedure. I found by trial that it needs 2 parameters.
