Re: Harmonica tablature
Hi Mark I am new to Lilypond. Could you give me a brief description of what the various parts of your code are doing? Thank you! shelt...@berkeley.edu wrote: I would like to develop some harmonica tablature using Lilypond. What I need is to put a one or two digit number above (possibly below instead) each note in the standard notation. I would like to have this happen automatically - ie whenever I enter a note in the usual manner the one or two digit number would appear as a tablature. Any suggestions on how I might accomplish this? How are the numbers determined according to the notes? Since you didn't mention that, I just used the ly:pitch-notename value for each note. I'm sure this isn't what you want, but this should at least give you an idea of a reasonable approach. Hope this helps. - Mark ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

It would be hard to explain it if you've not yet seen how
music is stored in pure scheme. You'll need to use the
\displayMusic function to see what I'm talking about.
Below are two scores: one without, and one with the
\harmonicaTab music-function. Add these to the bottom of
the file in my last post. I've prepended \displayMusic
to both of them so you can see the difference in the two
scheme expressions. Look at the console output to see what
needs to be added for the numbers to appear as they do.
Then look back at the code from the file and see how much
you can figure out. Then let me know what you still don't
understand.

Upward stems left to the notehead
The usual convention says that upward stems are positioned right to the notehead, while the downward stems are positioned right to the notehead. Is there a way, how to invert this behavior for whole score at once, please? I.e. how to make the downward stems positioned always left to the notehead and upward stems right to the notehead? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Upward-stems-left-to-the-notehead-tp28287808p28287808.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Bookpart without page break?
2010/4/17 Graham Percival gra...@percival-music.ca: [...] \header includes tagline and copyright, which does not go above a score. Yes but in the case we use a global \header (i.e. outside any \score block) for everything that is common, then only piece and opus are changed in the \header inside the \score. And both are printed above the score. And to be in bad faith the large majority of \header variables are printed above the score. :p If you bring it up during GLISS, it will be considered. Thanks! I will add it to my register of grievances. ;) 2010/4/17 Reinhold Kainhofer reinh...@kainhofer.com: Unfortunately, it is not a two-minutes job. A few weeks ago, I also tried to fix this, since I found it annoying too. Basically, all that needs to be changed is parser.yy, but unfortunately, the changes are not trivial, and I couldn't prevent lilypond from crashing in every case... Glad to see I'm not the only one to consider this a little annoying. I was suspecting this wouldn't be that simple from a dev point of view. But I still hope somebody will look into this and eventually find a solution. Thanks for your work Reinhold.

Lute tablature and j
Hello. I'm new to the list, but I've been using Lilypond for about a year now. Recently I've been wanting to produce some lute tablature, and just noticed the example in the documentation on doing letter tablature. I tried it out and found a problem that I'm not sure how to get around; the style of lute tablature I am interested in writing (a la Luys de Narvaez) skips the letter j as a fret indicator. Can anyone recommend a way to accomplish that in Lilypond? Apologies if this has been covered. I couldn't find it in the archives. - William Bajzek please note my new email address: williambaj...@gmail.com ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Lute tablature and j
Well, it's the right thread, but I'm sorry to say I didn't get very far with the implementation yet. That was partly due to difficulties with discovering how to do things, but eventually problems with RSI stopped me working at my laptop for anything more than an hour or so. Progress then became so slow I've given up for the time being. But to answer your initial question, this can be done in 2.13. Just give a list of fret labels with \set fretLabels = #`(a,b, etc) in TabVoice, omitting the letter j from the list. This isn't documented yet, but you can see an example in the changes for 2.13: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/changes/index Trevor - Original Message - From: William Bajzek williambaj...@gmail.com To: Federico Bruni federicobr...@sixbarsjail.it Cc: lilypond-user@gnu.org Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2010 10:31 PM Subject: Re: Lute tablature and j That seems like the right place to look.

Re: Harmonica tablature
I had started a thread about a month ago about harmonica tab. Mark's
demonstration file has helped me understand how define-music-funciton
can be used here.
I've attached an iteration with unicode arrows to indicate breath
direction (blow or draw) and holes for a standard C-tuning diatonic
harmonica. I also included horizontal bars to indicate half-step
bends. I'm not completely happy with the arrows and how they compose
with horizontal lines (probably manually specifying lines to draw the
arrows would be better).
The other issue that I'm not happy about is how ties are handled.
Ideally a tab marking would not be present when a there is not a new
note being sounded. Alternatively, I guess tie events could be
captured and some notation made in the tab line.
Also, note that it is important to use \harmonicaTab \relative c' {
} rather than \relative c' \harmonicaTab { } so that tab numbers
are in the appropriate octave.

That's something to decide before too long. Is there no
standard notation for this? Here's a situation to consider;
how should this be notated?
\harmonicaTab \relative c' { c~ c~ e~ c e g }
