I agree, all though I'm thinking the other way around:

So as I see it now, default is \tabNumersOnly and if you want to add

A command to set all such features (stems, dots, Tie etc.) on, would

I don't know how to make the stems and such disappear by default, but
using a simple command
isn't that much effort. I have attached my tablature.ly which allows to

don't know whether the

How do I fix the path?

2009-03-31 Thread Father Gordon Gilbert
Hi!

I've got LilyPondTool installed in jEdit 4.3pre16 on my Ubuntu box, and I'm
trying to make it work.  Only trouble is, when I go to compile an .ly file
it comes up a dialog with the following:

Error running external command.
See the activity log about the problem.
Cannot run program "c:\Program Files\LilyPond\usr\bin/python" (in directory
"/home/fgg/Desktop/LilyPond Files"): java.io.IOException: error=2, No such
file or directory

Looking at that, I see a mixture of \ and /.  Obviously it thinks it's on a
Windoze box somehow.  So where to I find the right place to fix the path?
And what do I put in there?

Thanks as always for your help,

there you have to put /usr/local/bin instead of C:\ etc.

You may also want to replace "C:\\Adobe Reader" with "evince" (or
whatever PDF viewer you have).

my girlfriend, a clarinettist and oboist, comes across these  
ornamentations far more often than i do. she told me the following:


mordent: single alteration down (c b c)
prall: single alteration up (c d c)

going by some other references (dolmetsch, kopprasch [iirc]), i think  
the following is how the other ones are interpreted:


prallprall: double alteration up (c d c d c)
prallmordent: up then down (c d c b c)
upprall: prall preceded by a lower step (b c d c)
downprall: prall preceded by the upper step (d c d c)
upmordent: mordent preceded by the lower step (b c b c)
downmordent: mordent preceded by the upper step (d c b c)
pralldown: prall finishing with the lower step (c d c b)
prallup: prall finishing with the upper step (c d c d)
lineprall: your guess is as good as mine

see the attached lilypond file for a possible interpretation. as with  
all ornaments, the exact timing is dependent on the period, the  
performer and which method he used to learn the ornaments from  
(kopprash for instance suggests a turn be performed as a triplet  
rather than as straigh 16ths...).


and to all the musicologists: feel free to correct any rubbish i've

% II = second ending
% x = first stanza
% y = second stanza
%---

Also, if you don't want to have different stanzas, only repeat the 
same lyrics,

you could add "\repeat volta" and \alternative to the lyrics.

Perhaps in the future..?


You can add \repeat and \alternative to the lyrics. Different stanzas 
are entered separately. So, your example would be easily notated in 
lilypond so:

\version "2.12.2"

\score {
\new Staff <<
\new Voice = "alku" \relative c' {
\repeat volta 2 { c d e f g a b c }
\alternative {
{ d e f g }
{ d c b a }
}
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "alku" {
\set stanza = "First Stanza "
\repeat volta 2 { cx dx ex fx gx ax bx cx }
\alternative {
{ dI eI fI gI }
{ dII cII bII aII }
}
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "alku" {
\set stanza = "Second Stanza "
cy dy ey fy gy ay by cy
}
>>
}

I still find a problem with this approach; the second stanza is not 
connected to second ending.. If I wanted to put a longer word accross 
the barline, it wouldn't work..? Also this approach seems a little like 
something to trick LilyPond with to make it look ok. It would be nice if 
the syntax was more focused on the content and LilyPond would worry 
about the output with good default settings. At least in simple examples 
like this one.


So.. what if the "words" were longer like this?

 \new Lyrics \lyricsto "alku" {
   cx dx ex fx gx ax bx --  cx -- dI -- eI fI gI
   cy dy ey fy gy ay by -- cy -- dII -- cII bII aII
 }

I wouldn't say that.  It would provide notification of a botched
download (if anybody checks it), or notification of a very
sophisicated man-in-the-middle attack whereby somebody attempts to
hack a system by modifying lilypond tarballs.  In order to gain a

For the modifying tarballs version, the attacker could also change de

Hmm, good point.  Now, I guess that we could start GPG-signing the

This is because the people in charge of those Nabble accounts didn't

Sure it is, but you'd put those words in the second \alternative 
ending.  Looks a little odd in the source code, but the point of the 
source code is to render into good output on the page and not how the 
source code itself looks.


If I wanted to put a longer word accross the barline, it wouldn't

   cy dy ey fy gy ay by -- cy -- dII -- cII bII aII
 }


My experience is that LilyPond does not easily handle lyrics crossing 
bar lines from the end of the first \alternative back to the top of 
the song, especially if there is a pickup note, but that may be my 
coding skills and not a problem in LilyPond itself (it may also be a 
limitation of using \addlyrics, which is the method I usually use).


Hi Tim =)

In my opinion there is great importance how the source code looks, 
especially in a program like lilypond, where all the input is done by 
hand, not by a program with a fancy user interface. Thus the syntax 
should be as user friendly as possible. Take XHTML for example, its main 
purpose is to define structure and content, not declare how everything 
should look. Maybe LilyPond should aim for the same thing..? =P


This is the best that I have been able to come up with yet and it is not 
pretty..


\version "2.12.2"
\score { <<
 \new Voice = "melody" \relative c' {
   { \partial 2 c2 }
 \new Voice = "verse" \relative c' {
   \repeat volta 2 {c4 d e f | g1 | }
   \alternative { { c2 d } { e2 f } }
 }
   \relative c''' { a2 b | c1 } 
 }

 \new Lyrics = "mainlyrics" \lyricsto melody {
   pick
   la si do }
 \context Lyrics = "mainlyrics" \lyricsto verse {
   \repeat volta 2 { do re mi fa sol }
   \alternative { { dom rem } { mim fam } }
 }
 \new Lyrics = "repeatlyrics" \lyricsto verse {
  dodo rere mimi fafa solsol- }

}

Or a more logical variation (still not pretty):

\version "2.12.2"

\score { <<
 \new Voice = "melody" \relative c' {
   \new Voice = "pickup" { \partial 2 c2 }
   \new Voice = "verse" \relative c' {
 \repeat volta 2 {c4 d e f | g1 | }
 \alternative { { c2 d } { e2 f } }
   }
   \new Voice = "end" \relative c''' { a2 b | c1 } 
 }

 \new Lyrics = "firstline" \lyricsto pickup { pick }
 \context Lyrics = "firstline" \lyricsto verse {
   \repeat volta 2 { do re mi fa sol }
   \alternative { { dom rem } { mim fam } }

Does Microsoft Vista advice against installing anything

won't accept that.

No, when the mingw.exe is executed Vista pops up a panel which
says the publisher can't be identified and gives the user the option
to cancel or continue.  The advice is to continue only if you have
installed the program before or know where it is from.  This is 
sensible
enough - it provides a warning that to proceed will install a 
program

(the user may not have intended to do this, so the warning helps to
prevent the unintentional installation of malware).


That can't be true.  Users
won't accept that.


It's hardly a big deal to click OK once.  An unidentified program is
one that doesn't have a valid digital signature from its publisher.
The warning may well scare off less knowledgeable people and
prevent their installing LilyPond, so it would be an improvement
if LilyPond could be digitally signed in a way recognised
by MS.


Do you have a reference?


This check is part of MS's User Account Control.  The check on 
installing

applications is one of about a dozen checks performed by UAC.

Re: repeat percent and chords

2009-03-31 Thread Kees Serier
Robin,

Yes, this is exactly what I was looking for!
The MIDI file also plays the second chord that is replaced by the Repeat
Percentage sign.

For other readers:
The two chords e:m e:m, when written as
e:m \percentCN{e:m},
are written above the staff as: Em  %

Can this be included, in one way or another in Lilypond?

Thanks again,

Kees

Where? When I user Help|User's Guide in the Windows version, I get an
empty pane on the right side. I've found one page on the website,
which is a lot better than nothing, but if user's guide exists, I'd
sure like to see it.

I agree, all though I'm thinking the other way around:

\tabNumbers

So as I see it now, default is \tabNumersOnly and if you want to add

A command to set all such features (stems, dots, Tie etc.) on, would

\tabSignsAll   (or something like that)

I don't know how to make the stems and such disappear by default, but
using a simple command
isn't that much effort. I have attached my tablature.ly which allows to
switch between the "normal" and
the "numbers only" settings. Both versions feature a modern tab clef. I
don't know whether the

settings only when a normal
staff and a tab staff are displayed together.

Comments, improvements etc. are welcome!

Thanks for your work Marc! :)

Maybe some lily devs can discuss how to make it default and make it 
possible to add things (dots, stems etc.).


I tested it a bit and it seems to work ok. I don't know if 
articulations etc belongs in tab too?


for example:

\version "2.12.2"
\include "tablature.ly"

tab = {
  \time 3/4
  c4. d-_( e\varcoda)
  ->f g~ a\prall g\thumb e-. f-. g-.
  \times 3/4 { b~ c d c }
}

\score {
 \new TabStaff = "guitar numbers only" { \tabNumbersOnly  \tab }
}

\score {
 \new TabStaff = "guitar full tab" { \tabNumbersAndStems \tab }
}



I think you should also add:

\override TabVoice.Tie #'transparent = ##t

Review of Valentin's Opera

2009-03-31 Thread Francisco Vila
Hello all,

You all know that the language of the concert reviews is sometimes a
bit 'special' and you'll understand my difficulties in the task of
translating this one from a Spanish magazine, Ópera Actual. I beg your
pardon for the numerous grammar inaccuracies.

At the same time, you all know what's the relation between the article
and LilyPond: although not mentioned in the text, the first opera by
Valentin Villenave is licensed as free software, and it has been fully
typeset using Lily. It has been a remarkable absolute première and the
article gives a very good value to the work and the performance.

I take this opportunity to say Kudos! to all the great lilyponders who
are using, developing and promoting this great piece of software.

%

*Montpellier. Opéra Comédie

Villenave: Affaire Étrangère; absolute premiere.

N. Courjal, M. Di Sapia, C. Hunold, V. Cortez, D. Noble,
Y. Saelens, C. Amoit. Conductor: S. Jean. Stage manager: R. Mitou.

February 5, 2009

A foreigner arrived to an imaginary country, aboard a spacecraft. The
king, who knew little about how to reign, influenced by the chief
guard, decided to kill him as neither God nor the queen wanted to
intervene in the decision. After some anything but trivial back and
forth, it was the foreigner who ended up by sending all to the space
and stayed as the new king. The story, antireligious without
irreverence and anarchying without violence, was treated as a comic
--Lewis Trondheim, author of the libretto, is a great specialist-- and
garnered cheers and applauses at the curtain down. Valentin Villenave,
in this his opera prima, illustrated the profuse text from his
twenty-and-a-few years with inspired themes and varied and original
orchestral combinations, very well interpreted from the pit by Samuel
Jean, along with singing lines supported on the French prosody. Also
the Richard Mitou's regia, simple and effective in a stylized
framework by Pierre Heydorff contributed to the success of this
premiere. While every voice defended his character with verve, were
the contrasts of color, pitch ranges and rhythms who created the
wealth of this vocal performance. This did not avoided us to applaud
safety and virile emission of Marco Di Sapia (the foreigner), the
elegant phrasing of Nicolas Courjal (the king), the subtlety and
richness of timbre of Catherine Hunold (the queen), the power and
clear elocution of Yves Saelens (chief guard), the excellent French
diction of the Romanian singer Delia Noble (the doctor) and the
presence of Viorica Cortez in the modest role of God.

You have a pretty-printable version behind of this link:

I'm in doubt about that modern TAB sign... (all though it's always good 
to have some choices)
I know most of the software / books display it like that, but should we 
follow that or fits the default tab sign better in Lilypond?

If I understand correctly, you have a group of interested users who are
working on defining how Tablature should behave.

You also have a couple of tablature users who are interested in becoming
Frogs and thus joining the development team (Marc is one of them, IIRC).

When you have agreement as to what should be the default for tablature, then
it will be time to add the changes to the distribution (and Marc would be an
ideal person to do it).

Right now, as I understand it, there are some users who regularly have
TabStaffs without any other staff.  These users need stems, beams, flags,
ties, slurs, etc.

There is also a group of users who regularly use TabStaff with Staff.  These
users want only numbers, because the beams, stems, slurs, ties, etc. are all
in the regular music staff, and the TabStaff is only showing fret and string
information.

People who care strongly about tablature (of which I am *not* one) should be
the people who make the decision about what the default should be.  In fact,
I don't think there's anybody on the core development team who is strongly
interested in tablature.

That being said, I don't think that the decision to make notes only or full
music the default is a very important decision, as long as there is a single
command to change to the other style.

When the decision is made, and it's ready for submission to LilyPond, the
defaults will be established in ly/engraver-init.ly

The commands for changing from one to the other will be established in
ly/property-init.ly.

Marc, once you've got consensus, you can make the changes and roll me a
patch, and I'll apply it.

Thanks,

Carl
