try using showLastLength or skipTypesetting, documented here:

Re: Using texi2html for the documentation

2008/3/24, Reinhold Kainhofer [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 That the lilypond server always forces the German version upon me. Of course,
  I want amazon, ebay, etc. in German, but for the Lilypond docs, German is
  useless, because I mostly don't know the proper German terms.

Have you tried to use a firefox extension (see my former mail)? It's
not really convenient, but it's still the less painful way I've found
for now.

Cheers,
Valentin

Parenthesizing rests

2008-03-25 Thread Aaron Dalton
I've done some archive searching but there does not appear to be any 
solution.  How does one parenthesize rests?  I'm preparing a number of 
transcriptions that will eventually be formally published (with Lilypond 
credited as the engraver) and need to be able to show editorial rests as 
well as pitches.  I am having the same problems outlined in the list 
archives.


Thanks for your help.

simultaneous free rhythms

2008-03-25 Thread luis jure


hello list, i found a problem i can't solve by myself. 

i'm writing a string quartet with a section where the four instruments
play in free rhythm, independently from each other. the cello plays a
melody and the three other instruments play whole notes with fermatas,
all of them freely. 

the general score is of course only an approximation of the result (see
attached handwritten excerpt).

first i wrote the cello part using cadenzaOn and \bar  to force line
breaks. that was OK, and i thought it would be as easy as doing the
same in the other voices. but i realized that everything gets aligned
and that you can't put independent line breaks. 

what's the best method to achieve what i'm trying to do? 

i hope i have stated the problem clearly enough.

best,

lj

from MIDI?

2008-03-25 Thread George_

It's possible to make a .ly file into a MIDI file, but is it possible to have
a midi file and convert it back to a .ly file, or even better, a .pdf file?

Thanks
