Re: Latest version in Ubuntu
Hello all, It's a dependency trouble. Tetex-bin has been removed from dependencies but is still needed by the dpkg preinstallation script (kpsewhich is included i this package). Installing tetex-bin before installing Lily is the fastest solution for now, but I'll rebuild the package soon.

Hairpin on single note
Hi, I'm planning to resume using lilypond after a rather long break. I will upgrade to one of the latest versions (2.7.15+) on linux. One of the most annoying things I found when transcribing music was the necessity of entering hairpins on single notes with the very clumsy notation of the type << {c1} {s4 \< s s s \!} >> I was wondering if someone has written a scheme function or whatever to make this kind of thing simpler? Thanks, David. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Non-latin scripts howto?
I just did a little experiment with gedit and it actually handles trope and vowels on the same consonants. Like the following: זָקֵף־קָט֔ן group גֵ֜רֶשׁ & רְבִיעִ֗י groups סֶגוֹל֒ group Interestingly, this must be built into the gnome text widget, because Evolution handles it brilliantly as well.

Custom page size in LaTeX causes lilypond-book to produce bad output.
Greetings: In Lilypond 2.2, I used to LaTeX with the vmargin package to define a custom paper size for a 1/2 size songbook. With lilypond 2.6, simply including the vmargin package ( just \include[vmargin] -- it's part of a typical TeX installation) causes lilypond-book to produce a score with the first measure of the first system placed up beside the title block for the piece. Has anyone found a way to change page dimensions in this way? Does anyone know what might be tripping Lilypond up? Thanks in advance. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Non-latin scripts howto?
gedit places the vowels correctly inside, above or below the consonants. I haven't tried any text that contains trope (let alone trying trope and vowels in combination). As far as I can tell, gedit also renders the combinations of r-to-l and l-to-r text correctly. BTW, gedit has to deal with the word wrap algorithms. And those seem correct as well. I can tell you from experience that nested bidirectional word wrap algorithms can get pretty ugly.

Re: Non-latin scripts howto?
Gilles, I've had little luck edit Hebrew (actually Yiddish) in emacs. I do all of the editing of Lilypond except for the right-to-left markup in emacs. Then I use gedit with great success for the Yiddish markup. It seems to keep the directionality things right and saves properly in UTF-8. I am using 2.6.

When I have tried to include them, Lilypond places them as though they are separate characters. They should actually be placed in the same character location as the preceding character. The other thing that I have had problems with is combinations of right-to-left and left-to-right text on the same line. For example titleMarkup = \markup { \override #'(font-name . "Serif") \override #'(font-size . 12) { "אדעסע בולגאר 3" } } comes up with the 3 over the top of reish instead of separated by a space. These behaviors are covered by the directional rendering rules in Unicode, but almost every rendering engine has some problems. For example, Mozilla can either place vowels or trope on a character but not both. The second combining character gets pushed to the next character position. There are some hints that you may be able to work around this in 2.7 with the text-direction property, but I haven't tried it yet.

I am quite new to lilypond but after some work I was able to typeset the foist movement of the first chorus (eight voices + nine instruments). While everything seems to work out well, including lyrics, I have problems vith vertical spacing. I have set a vertical spacing og -6.6 in my \layout block: \layout { indent = 2.0\cm \context { \Staff minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-6 . 6 ) } } The problem is that the voices wich have lyrics have a huge vertical spacing added in the first page (even if the voices enter after a few pages), disappears on subsequent pages, and reappears when the vhorus starts. This seems idipendent to the minimumVerticalExtent I try to set. Is there a way to force the vertical spacing of staffs with lyrics? The spacing between chorus staffs is indeed large, and the text is set far away from the end of the staff.

Re: Upgrading to 2.6 Help
Cheers for that. Next problem - my music now goes through lilypond book successfully, but I don't seem to be able to process the output. I have a script that does: rm -r build mkdir build cp volume2.tex ./build cd build lilypond-book -V --psfonts -o output volume2.tex cd output latex volume2.tex lilypond-book completes with: Extracted feta-alphabet13 Extracted CenturySchL-Ital Writing fonts to volume2.psfonts DVIPS usage: dvips -h output/volume2.psfonts output/volume2.dvi Looking through the lilypond-book output, there are no errors but there are a couple of warnings.

Getting started in OS X terminal
I've used a mac for a couple of years now. Until I found Lilypond, I'd never felt the need to dip into the Terminal. Now I'm keen to make use of some features of Lilypond which seem to be accessible only from the terminal, such as midi2ly. I'd really appreciate a little help in getting started. The readme says "Put the lilypond.sh script somewhere in your path, eg. $ cp lilypond.sh /usr/local/bin/lilypond" I have carried out this command, but I'm not sure if that is in my path. The following command and output make me wonder: $ echo $PATH /bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple- darwin-current I've been reading "Unix for Mac OS X Tiger" to try and make sense of all this, but it is slow going. I'm not even sure what a path is yet! My thanks in advance for any help. I run Lilypond 2.7.11-1 on mac os 10.4.2, with macpython 2.3 installed (though it doesn't seem to open). Python version 2.3.5 runs in the terminal. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Newbie, lyrics and vertical spacing.
Hi all, I am planning of typesetitng with lylipond a large quantity of vocal music with instruments for a pubblication. I am quite new to lilypond but after some work I was able to typeset the foist movement of the first chorus (eight voices + nine instruments). While everything seems to work out well, including lyrics, I have problems vith vertical spacing. I have set a vertical spacing og -6.6 in my \layout block: \layout { indent = 2.0\cm \context { \Staff minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-6 . 6 ) } } The problem is that the voices wich have lyrics have a huge vertical spacing added in the first page (even if the voices enter after a few pages), disappears on subsequent pages, and reappears when the vhorus starts. This seems idipendent to the minimumVerticalExtent I try to set. Is there a way to force the vertical spacing of staffs with lyrics? The spacing between chorus staffs is indeed large, and the text is set far away from the end of the staff. BTW sometimes I get an erroneous page breaking (my 17-staff staff systems accoupies one full page): two systems instead of getting on two separate pages are put on one (one system shows fully and the other only the first staff, atthe end of the page). Lilypond ouputs non errors or warnings. Thanks Rodofo ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Vertical staff height
Hi everyone Being new to Lilypond I'm impressed about the possibilities of this program. My first sheet already looks good. However there is one thing that I want to change and I don't know how: The first staff is very high (probably due to the four stanzas) and as a result I had to reduce the global staff size, such that the piece fits on one page. Is there a way to tell the program to reduce the size of that first staff?

Building lilypond assumes .pyc instead of .pyo
The lilypond installation procedure assumes that the build part did produce some .pyc (python bytecode files) but on some distros PYTHONOPTIMIZE is set so that .pyo files are created instead of .pyc, resulting in an aborted installation process when the files are missing... Does the .pyc files really need to be copied? If so, one could check the presence of PYTHONOPTIMIZE env variable. /Jonatan-=( http://kymatica.com )=- ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

How could I tell Lilypond to use "gray-grob" on every grob on the staff? A couple of options: - write an "all_grob_property_engraver", which takes a list like allGrobProperties = #`(color ,gray) and applies that to every grob. - Use scheme code to set #'color in all grobs.

Changing every grob's color in a staff
Hello to everybody, I am writing separate parts of Schubert's "Salve Regina" for my chorus. I would like to include every staff in the scores, but use a black color for the part itself and a gray color for the others. So, for instance, the score for tenor voices should use a black color for the tenor staff and gray color for sopranos, altos and basses. My first try was to write a function that set manually the color for each possible grob in the Staff and Voice context, but this is boring and not elegant at all. My next idea was to write a Scheme function which changes the color property of each grob in a Staff, but I have problem in implementing it. I used something like: #(define (gray-grob grob grob-origin context) (set! (ly:grob-property grob 'color) (x11-color 'grey))) ... \new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = "Contralti" \applyoutput #gray-grob (notes...) } but unfortunately \applyoutput works on the first grob only. How could I tell Lilypond to use "gray-grob" on every grob on the staff?
