As long as the libraries you try to call have been created on Mac OS X (I haven't found a way to call a Linux dynamic library on a Mac), all you have to do is to change the file name extension to .dylib; I think: The dynamic library functions are named the same on Mac OS X: dlclose dlopen dlsym See the 'man' pages or search the Apple developer site.

Re: Professional LilyPond users?
2007/11/1, Dominic Neumann [EMAIL PROTECTED]: The reason I use LaTeX is that I know LaTeX very well as a typesetting engine for mathematical documents and therefor I´m used to it. However LaTeX isn´t too comfortable for this, but it works. I´m very interested in trying ConTeXt -- I hope, I´ll find the time to have a try. see http://wiki.contextgarden.net (/LilyPond) ConTeXt can do everything what LaTeX does WRT math. It just uses a completely different layout approach - you don't use document classes but define your layout yourself. Most features that are in usual LaTeX packages are in ConTeXt's core, and some more in additional modules. So the interface is much more coherent. But of course ConTeXt is a moving target (at least WRT newest features) and lacks printed documentation. At the moment the big move to LuaTeX binds most of the core developers' time. The main strength of using a system like LaTeX compared to a DTP software is that one can write scripts to manage the whole creation process. I didn´t want to do this with InDesign or something like that. You can also control ID or QXP with scripts, there are several possibilities, on OSX I use Python with the appscript module (Apple Events) to remote control ID; on WinXP I used Python with win32com (COM API); for an other workflow I create text files with ID tags or XML files and import those into ID. You can do similar stuff with QXP (XPress tags, perhaps also XML). Sorry, it gets more and more OT here... ;-) Do you know if there is a way to get PDF/X3-compatible files out of ConTeXt? With LaTeX, I didn´t manage this. [PDF/X3 is a standard for PDF files needed in pre-press.] We should discuss such on TeX-D-L or NTG-Context. AFAIK that's not a (mis)feature of LaTeX or ConTeXt, but of pdfTeX. You can convert a TeX PDF into PDF/X with Acrobat Pro, though. Perhaps it's possible to include the ICC profiles and additional information with some pdfTeX primitives, but AFAIK nobody yet managed to create a standards compliant PDF/X-3 yet. In fact, you seldom need one, because songbooks are normally blackwhite... Greetlings, Hraban ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Lilypond on MacosX Leopard
Hi Immanuel I worked around the guile problem by upgrading my portfile to 1.8.3 and manually adding #undef HAVE_STAT64 in config.h after the configure phase. However lilypond will complain about not beeing able to dlopen libguile-srfi-srfi-1-v-3.so. I solved this problem by just setting DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH=$DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/ local/lib before i launch lilypond. I've hardwired this line in the textmate-bundle i'm using currently using. If you use lilyponds own GUI you'll have to create some wrapper script or perhaps modify environment.plist [1].

here I find immediatly:
If the preceding item is a chord, the first note of the chord is used
as the reference point for the octave placement of a following note
or chord:
but because I mixed up chords and polyphony I also need:
Polyphony does not change the relationship of notes within a
\relative { } block. Each note is calculated relative to the note
immediately preceding it.
\relative { noteA noteB \\ noteC noteD }
noteC is relative to noteB, not noteA; noteD is relative to noteC,
not noteB or noteA.

RE: Measure runs off PDF file after 5 8th notes in 4/4 time
John The usual cause of this behaviour is because LilyPond cannot find a suitable place to break the line. Line breaks can occur only at 'complete' bars, ie where the last note(s) in the bar in all staves end(s) at the automatically inserted barline. If any note carries over no break can take place. A single wrongly inserted duration can progagate this condition though many bars. A bar check will generate a warning at each check where a carry-over of duration occurs. If carry-overs are intended, a manually inserted bar can indicate to LP that a break may occur. Other things that can prevent a line break are a sequence of manually inserted beams or tuplets which straddle barlines.

The first line of this piece, lilypond prints 5 measures. The second line has 14.5 measures and they are crammed with notes. The last line has 6 measures of notes followed by an empty measure in all three parts and then pianoRH has continuing staff lines. I have measure checks in the piece and all pass even at the final measure of 32 bars. I tried adding empty measures to pianoLH and clarinet but that shortened pianoRH by an empty measure.

Thanks! I used to use padding for that. I will add another shorthand version of that to my collection of Scheme functions. The downside of this is that it takes us back to before all the great work that has been done on collision avoidance and requires each rehearsal mark to be tweaked separately.

GPD: staff first draft
As always, see here:
http://web.uvic.ca/~gperciva/
Here's the TODO list for Staff. If there's anything to add, please
speak up now.
QUESTIONS
System start delimiters:
The difference between GrandStaff and StaffGroup should be
explained here. As it now stands, it seems as if the only
difference is a graphical one: brace or bracket. But according to
the prog. reference, StaffGroup can contain most/all other staff
types, whereas GrandStaff only contains FiguredBass and Staff, so
perhaps SG should come first? But this can contain doesn' seem
to mean nesting, because this:
\score {
\new StaffGroup
\melody
\new GrandStaff
\melody
\melody
\melody
\melody
does not contain any GrandStaff at all, only a blank line.
Should be clarified: what does it mean to contain, and how does
one achieve the nested layout?
* I've added a reference to the lsr snippet with use of
InternalStaffGroup, which is much more likely to be useful to most
people. perhaps that reference should be expanded to a full
description with an example, to make it more prominent.
* The lilypond example to the description of the
systemStartDelimiterHierarchy property, is very convoluted.
I don't understand the scheme syntax of this property, which is
said to be a pair, but according to the definition of a pair in
the tutorial, pairs have the form (x . y). This should be
explained. What do the letters a, b, and d do, why is there no c?
* the systemStartSquare should be mentioned, incl. a bit of
code to show how to use it.
* should we make a new @unnumberedsubsubsec Nesting staff groups ?
Staff symbol
* rename to Staff appearance ?
* make new @unnumberedsubsubsec Ossia ?
Hiding staves
* if new Ossia, then change ref to Ossia.

GDP: text first draft
Final first draft. http://web.uvic.ca/~gperciva/ Here's the current list: Text REWRITE - overview of text entry: rename? Also, fill in. - or possibly delete it? - text scripts: for the love of $DEITY, change the first example. \fatText goes into @commonprop - text spanners: is there any easier way to do this? Ask about making a special scheme command to simply this? - text and line spanners: too much programmer doc-writing. Rewrite the whole thing. And move to a different section. ... actually, what's the point of this section? Shouldn't it be in Text spanners? ... actually^2, isn't the first part dealing with glissandi?!
