Re: Connected arpeggios up-down

[Mats Bengtsson]

By default, the macros \arpeggioUp and -Down only modify what happens in 
the
current Voice context, whereas connected arpeggios are handled at the 
Staff level.
Just add the following lines at the top of your file to redefine the 
macros to do the

change at the Staff level:

arpeggioUp = \sequential {
 \override Staff.Arpeggio  #'arpeggio-direction = #UP
}
arpeggioDown = \sequential {
 \override Staff.Arpeggio  #'arpeggio-direction = #DOWN
}

arpeggioNeutral = \sequential {
 \revert Staff.Arpeggio  #'arpeggio-direction
}

(I haven't actually verified that this solution works.)

Re: no bar numbers

[Mats Bengtsson]

This change happened already in version 2.9.3 or so.
If you want the bar numbers back, add something like
\layout{
 \context{
   \Score
   \consists Bar_number_engraver
 }
}
somewhere below \include "gregorian-init.ly"

Hi @ all!

Has anyone the same experience with LilyPond 2.9.22? I tried the
following example:

\version "2.9.22"
\include "gregorian-init.ly"
\include "deutsch.ly"

#(set-global-staff-size 18)


\relative c' {a1 a a a\break a a a a\break a a a a}


As a result I get an output without any barnumbers.

Can someone tell me, how I can activate the output of the barnumbers? I
remember that there were no problems in previous versions I tried before.

Why not use a directory in /tmp/ for temporary files? I'm probably not the

Of course, I could add a soft link from .ooolilypond-tmp to /tmp/.

Maybe you read the wrong instructions. On the web page and in the file 
offline version which you find in the tar.gz or zip file you find these 
instructions:


Associate a keyboard shortcut with the macro
- Create a new writer document
- Select from the Menu: "Tools" --> "Customize..."
- Go to the tab "Keyboard"
- Select "Control-M" as Shortcut key
- Select "OpenOffice.org Macros/user/OOoLilyPond/Main" as Functions Category
- Select "main" as Funtion
- Click "Modify"

The path "OpenOffice.org Macros/user/OOoLilyPond/Main" seems to be the 
correct one. Did you read the instructions on the web page? May be your 
browser cage had an older version of the web page which was loaded when 
visiting it.

OOoLP fails with same error

[Dave Phillips]

Hi Samuel,

Apparently there's something deeply wrong with my setup. I'm now using 
OOo 2.0.4, LilyPond 2.8.6, and I receive the identical error as before:


terminate called after throwing an instance of
'std::logic_error'
what():basic_string::_S_construct NULL not valid

I'm inclined to believe that the error originates in Debian's default 
build of OOo, but I'm really just guessing. Alas, as I said, Google is 
no help with this error. I've put a message on the Linux audio 
developers' list, perhaps one of the C++ gurus there can help.


Best,

dp

OOoLilyPond 0.3 released

[Samuel Hartmann]

The new release of OOoLilyPond can be downloaded now 
(http://ooolilypond.sourceforge.net).


The main change is that is does not call a bash script anymore. So on 
Windows OOoLilyPond can be used with the MinGW-Version of lilypond 
without the need for installing cygwin.


Here is the ChangeLog:

* Code cleaned up
* No bash script is needed anymore
* No cygwin is needed on Windows
* Works with MinGW version of LilyPond
* cygwin version of LilyPond is not supported anymore
* Cleaned up configuration Dialog
* LilyPond executable can be specified
* Templates can be selected using a pop up menu
* on Linux, ~/.ooolilypond-tmp is used for temporary files
* on Windows, %SystemRoot%\Temp is used for temporary files
* on Linux, Settings are stored in ~/.ooolilypond
* on Windows, Settings are stored in %APPDATA%\ooolilypond
	* Changed the way the LilyPond Code and Template name is stored in the 
graphic

I would like to buy this enhancement (highly motivated buyer)

[Rick Hansen (aka RickH)]

I've been using LP for a while now and waiting for the time when I think I
could finance a very useful enhancement.  Now I have something that I would
like to sponsor, and I think it would be a very worthwhile enhancement,
especially for musicologists.  Please tell me if there already is a way to
do what I am about to describe, as that will save me some money in
sponsoring it.

Requirement:

A method whereby I can take an existing LP score, and by adding a simple
array list (new property) to the \paper block, have lilypond "cut up" the
score into several pre-defined cutouts of the full score.  Each fragment
being an eps file that contains only the measures I asked for.  Here is an
example of what the source code MIGHT look like, (I dont profess to know
scheme so I leave final implementation language up to the developer).


Example of possible solution:

%EXAMPLE BEGIN

(define-public mysnippets '(
   ("measures04thru08.eps" . (cons (* 04) (* 08)))
   ("measures20thru24.eps" . (cons (* 20) (* 24)))
   ("measures01thru06.eps" . (cons (* 01) (* 06)))
   ("measures09thru18.eps" . (cons (* 09) (* 18)))
   ("measures30thru30.eps" . (cons (* 30) (* 30)))
   ("measures34thru35.eps" . (cons (* 34) (* 35)))
   ("measures02thru04.eps" . (cons (* 02) (* 04)))
   ("measures40thru47.eps" . (cons (* 40) (* 47)))
))


\Paper
cutout-rectangles = #(alist->hash-table mysnippets)
}

%EXAMPLE END


Benefits:

1) The user would write their musical score as they always do.

2) They would then define an alist that lists all the "cutouts" they want to
extract, for each cutout they would specify a file name, the starting
measure number, and the ending measure number.

3) Upon compiling their score as usual, the full PDF will be generated as
always, but in addition all the "cutouts" will be outputted to the file
names provided in the alist.  The contents of each cutout rectangle would
match exactly, verbatim, to that area of the full score.

4) The users word processor would be set up to "include" these snippet
rectangle eps files where needed.

5) The contents of each eps would be as though I physically took a razor
blade and "cutout" that rectangle from the paper.  Each cutout would contain
all vertical staffs at the named measures exactly as shown in the full
score, including chordnames, lyrics, tabs, whatever.


Logically I think this enhancement belongs in the \paper block because it is
really meant to be a score that has been "cutup" for use by a "pasteup"
artist.  Probably the best way to do it would be a post-process that takes
the full .ps file and carves out the rectangles from that.  That would
insure that they always match the full score perfectly.  Maybe "comment
markers" can be embedded in the ps file at lily run time, then all the
post-processor has to do is find the markers and write out the postscript
"cutouts" to separate files based on from/to markers?

How much would this cost to develop based on whatever way YOU think is best
to implement/code it?  I am really only interested in the resulting
capability, not how it actually gets accomplished.


Thanks
Rick

It is really amazing that even I who have not done much in music since the 
early 60's, have found it usable. For someone more into music than me it must 
be real easy to use.

I told a music teacher about it the other day and he was rather amazed and 
took a sample of an augmented quartet music I had printed out.

Thanks for LilyPond. I use it almost every week now.

Re: Possible to change the three-quarters-flat symbol?

[Mats Bengtsson]

If you just have the desired symbol available in some font
or can compose it by combining existing symbols in some way,
it is fairly straightforward to redefine the way an accidental
is typeset. If you want it fully automated so that LilyPond
itself replaces every three-quarters-flat symbol with some
other symbol, then you need to write a few lines in the
Scheme programming language.

The best solution would of course be to include these
different variants of the accidental symbols into the
LilyPond font and to add some style property that can be
used to select the desired layout. This requires more
hacking, though.

Re: eps again

[Rick Hansen (aka RickH)]

Just for info, I was using Microsoft Word Win XP, and yes they just show up
as rectangles in the application.  But at least the rectangles are of the
proper size.  But when I print the MSWord doc to the printer (or print a
PDF) the results are beautiful, no issues, no error messages from Word or
Adobe Reader.  So I am happy with my results, not having wysiwyg in Word is
just a deficiency with MSWord that I can live with.

What is "odt"?

However, on my Windows 2000 machine the eps files behave as though some of
the font characters are missing, I'm attributing that to a bug in Win 2000
at this time, and maybe not a problem with the eps generation, because all
is working fine on Win XP.

Not much help for you I'm sure, but it might give someone looking into this
some more insight.

Question_about CapsAndNames andDelimitersAndEscapes for-lilypond-items

[Eyolf Ostrem]

One of the things that has taken me the longest time to get my head around in 
LP, and where I have made most mistakes with typos that I haven't understood 
why they don't work, is the various combinations of CamelCase, 
scheme-type-hyphenated-names, camelCaseWithLowercaseFirstLetter, and the 
various one-word versions of these, which result in equal-looking names.
Furthermore, which naming schemes are REQUIRED in the various languages that 
are involved and which are only conventions (in the manual, e.g.).
And, thirdly, which items are escaped with \ and which are not.
I've looked through the documentation, and then one gets a fairly clear 
picture, but it would have been nice to have it summarized in one place in 
the manual.
The patterns seem to be (but correct me if I'm wrong):

Music expressions, GROBs and Contexts: CamelCase
Music classes, music properties, Grob interfaces, and backend properties: 
scheme-type
Engravers: Caps_and_underscores
Context properties: lowercaseAndCamelCase
backend properties: scheme-style (but X and Y are capitalized as first items!)
scheme functions: ly:plus-scheme-style

This results in the following variants for various bar-related commands:

Bar_engraver
barCheckSynchronize
BarLine

That's clear enough, I suppose. I still don't have a consistent understanding 
of the difference between music properties and context properties, and why 
they need different style, but I'll get there.

But there's more: in one place in the manual, there is an example where both  
\consists Bar_engraver and 
\consists "Volta_engraver"
appear. Why the quotation marks? Is this optional? In general? or is it a 
typo?
Why \Score in some cases and \score in others? Is that optional? Or are they 
in fact different types of names?

And the following, which I simply don't understand:

"9.1.5 Changing context default settings

  \layout {
...
\context {
   \Staff
...
}
  }
   Here  \Staff takes the existing definition for context Staff from the 
identifier \Staff."

Why is this an identifier, which usually (it seems) are lower-case? Why isn't 
what follows it enclosed in {}? And, again, do the three "Staff"s in the 
explaining sentence refer to three different (types of) objects? Is the first 
\Staff a different item than the context Staff, which just happens to have 
the same name? Is this \Staff the "identifier \Staff" which is mentioned 
later in the sentence, or is it yet another thing with the same name?
I'm confused... Mostly because of the {}-less syntax, but also by the 
same-same-but-different names. 
Can someone enlighten me?

I feel that the documentation in many cases either gives simple examples 
(where it is not evident what are simply randomly chosen names in the 
examples and what is LP functions), or - in the program reference - is 
extremely terse. The middle ground, which would connect the two, is often 
missing, such as in the case of the naming conventions/rules.

Re: Backend EPS issue

[Rick Hansen (aka RickH)]

Yes I have both CutePDF and GS installed on XP.  However I did change my
environment PATH variable to search for lily bin first, the gs next:  here
is my system PATH variable:

C:\Program
Files\LilyPond\usr\bin;C:\gs\gs8.50\bin;C:\gs\gs8.50\lib;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program
Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\

in Control Panel / System / Advanced / EnvironmentVariables dialog box

With this setup Lily will basically ignore the "other" copy of gs, but
CutePDF still knows where it's (newer) copy is.

If you are interesed in Victoria, you should have a look at [1].
Unfortunately their ly file [2] is for version 1.4.12.

Also note that Jeff's score [3] is transposed up a minor third
from the original [4].

eps again

I seem to have the same problem as already reported here:
(Windows XP, Lilypond 2.9.22)

lilypond -b eps -dno-gs-load-fonts -dinclude-eps-fonts  epstest.ly

I did insert the eps into a odt file, shows as a rectangle (this is 
normal (?)).
Printing gives the following error message:

Re: Error from lilypond: hyphen not finished yet

[Mats Bengtsson]

First of all, I hope you used convert-ly to update the file to be
combatible with your current LilyPond version (did you say which
version you used?). Still, you should be aware that LilyPond is a program
that evolves quickly and that even though convert-ly can handle most of the
changes automatically, it sometimes fails.

For this specific example, I notice that the original file used a feature
\oldaddlyrics that was outdated already in version 2.4 and hasn't really
been supported since then. I haven't tried to modify the file to use the
new \lyricsto or \addlyrics features (which unfortunately requires some
manual work), but I suspect that that's the main problem here.
Actually, when I tried the file in the latest development version of
LilyPond, it choked completely since \oldaddlyrics doesn't work anymore
(I have sent a bug report that the problem at least should be recognized by
convert-ly).

The LilyPond package contains a version of ghostcript and calls it from
within both lilypond and lilypond-book. However, that version of ghostcript
is called gs.exe, whereas the native Windows installations of 
Ghostscript have

an executable called gswin32.exe so they shouldn't really interfere with
