I want to be able to write out any chord *name*. I'm in the early stages of writing a book in two versions, one in English and one in Brazilian Portuguese. The Brazilian chord naming standard is different from both the European and the American ones, and is not supported in LilyPond's current version; neither is the American jazz chord naming standard, with stacked modifiers. I'm currently trying out an idea given by Mats Bengtsson in the users forum, which is to write out the chord names as an additional set of timed lyrics above the score. It's easy to do and it works fine, except that the transposing function is lost. All the same, I'd like to try and learn how to write sourcecode for LilyPond. Is there a manual or a tutorial? I've looked around but just found a tutorial & manual for users, not for developers. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Proposed chord name font (PDF included)
Maybe it would be a good idea to make all the chordname things more flexible for the users. For example, it would be nice to rename some chord names like one can already do with \set majorSevenSymbol = \markup { ... }. I´d like to have this for the sus4 chords, because i like it more to have G4 that Gsus4. So it would be nice if all these new ideas for chords would then be usable and extensible for every user. 2007/7/30, PabloZum <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > > > Do you want users to be able to write out any _chord_ (which is a > collection of notes), or any _chord name_ (which is a description for a > collection of notes)? > > > > Are chord names unique for a collection of notes, or can there be multiple > chord names for one collection of notes? > > I want to be able to write out any chord *name*.

Re: Lilypond-book on OS X

I suppose the file is inside the Lilypond.app folder somewhere, but if I simply try to enter in terminal something like lilypond-book test.tex I get a command-not-found error. How could I include this command in my default path? Or is there a way to execute lilypond-book from inside the OS X application itself?

Yes, since that I also created the suggested files, and I added them to a .profile file in the /Users/admin folder (my home folder), but still doesn't work. Is here anybody in the list that owes a Mac and runned these commands successfully? The strange is, that the application works fine.

That's unusual. Well, this is my first Mac (and I switched from Windows not so many time ago), with a pre-installed OS, and since I'm the only one using it, I didn't thought on changing the predefined user name. but still doesn't work.

If you _are_ familiar with the command-line, please investigate using the normal means: is your PATH set correctly, are the files executable, etc. Yes, I'm quite unfamiliar with command-line tools, and I never really needed any. For developing, you can use XCode or Eclipse or a lot of other tools, for TeX you can use texmaker or TeXShop quite well, for Lilypond you have the nice Lilypond.app (although it would be great if someone added a numerical indicator for the current cursor position because it's quite heavy to debug the source with an editor that doesn't show you where the cursor actually is), there are even good and powerful editors for CSound as well, etc. But I tried to follow the steps in the manual, I created a folder in the /Applications/Lilypond folder (that's where I have the Lilypond.app) with the file 'lilypond-book' containing the line 'exec /Applications/Lilypond/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/lilypond-book "$@"', as indicated in the manual, I runned the 'chmod u+x lilypond-book' command from the recently created bin folder, and I've put a .profile file with the content 'export PATH=$PATH:/Applications/Lilypond/Lilypond.app/Contents/Resources/bin' in my /Users/admin folder, but nothing changed, I get the same error log. Might you have any idea about what's going on on my machine, taking in consideration these things?
