Well, i have just read your message just yesterday. Sorry.
Here is a function that automatically repeats the pitch
of a tied note.
I'll try to include it in a next release of changePitch.ly

Strings as variable names

[Menu Jacques]

Hello folks,

I’ve found that one can write the following:

\version "2.19.33"

"bella melodia" = \relative c' {
   r4- ef\upbow(f) r g |
}

\score {
  \"bella melodia"
}


but I couldn’t find such a possibility in the 2.19.31 Notation Reference, even 
though that may be useful.

Does anyone know more about this?

JM

You could use LilyPond version 2.19.33. Your code gives the attached result.

Re: problem with accent placement

[Klaus Blum]

Hi Alex, 

to affect the markup, use TextScript instead of Script:

% -
\version "2.18.0"

\relative c''' {
  a2-> \trill

  \once \override TextScript.script-priority = #-100
  a2-> ^\trill^\markup { \sharp }
}
% -

Cheers, 
Klaus

problem with accent placement

[Alex Jones]

I’m using the Script.priority-order to place an accidental above a trill 
ornament, but when combining with a note accent it creates an ordering property 
as per the documentation example.  However with the following snippet:

\version "2.18.0"

\relative c''' {
a2-> \trill

\once \override Script.script-priority = #-100
a2-> ^\trill^\markup { \sharp }
}


The first note places the accent adjacent to the note and the trill above 
(which is correct)

when adding the \sharp and getting it above the tr it swaps the accent and 
trill ornament creates this side-effect.

Is there a way to specify the order between the three expressive marks?

Thanks!!!

Just a guess, but \transpose is funny - I think of it as taking note
NAMES. As soon as you've fed the names through anything (such as
define-music-function) they've been converted to note PITCHES, and
\transpose no longer works.

Short answer - \transpose is very temperamental and sensitive as to
where it is used.

(And note, my understanding is almost certainly technically wrong, I
just find it helpful as a superficial guide to what's going on.)

Wol

Your \layout blocks are messed up (don’t compile, MensuralStaff vs.
Staff). Did you want to do something like the following?

\version "2.19.33"

\paper {
  indent = 0
}

\markup {
  \fill-line {
\score {
  \new Staff \with {
\omit TimeSignature
  } {
\clef violin
  }
}
\hspace #2
\score {
  \new Staff \with {
\omit Clef
  } {
\time 4/4

\transpose not work working inside define-music-function

[J Smith]

I'm trying to define a music function that transposes a chord and a 
melody multiple times.  But for some reason, the transposition is done 
only once.
 
Here's my attempt:
 
repeatpattern =
#(define-music-function (parser location chord pattern) (ly:music? 
ly:music?)
  #{
  % <<
  \new ChordNames {
\transpose c d { #chord }
\transpose c e { #chord }
  }
  \new Staff {
\transpose c d { #pattern }
\transpose c e { #pattern }
  }
  % >>
  #})
 
\score {
  \repeatpattern { c1 } { c'4 d' e' r }
}
 
(delete the %'s preceding << and >>; had to add them to pass Gmane's 
filter).

Any ideas for why this is not working and how to fix it? (i.e., it 
should transpose "c d e" into "d e f#" and "e f# g#", not into "f# g# 
a#").

Thanks, once again, for Frescobaldi, Wilbert Berendsen. What a difference

Nothing to do with \transpose
change
#chord to $chord
and

to work on a _copy_ of chord

\relative c''' {

MacPorts as I understand it is meant to work on its own. Since it keeps records

The problem is that we don't have other ancient flags than flags.mensural
Right now only (neo-)mensural style-note-heads will get
mensural-flags, the other ancient styles default ones.
\override #'(flag-style . ) only works for straight/flat-flags with.

Not sure, if we should hardwire all ancient note-head-styles to
mensural-flags, but the user should be able to set the flag-style he
prefers even for ancient note-heads.
So far I'd call it a bug, yes

Will have a closer look.

  Harm

Re: Strings as variable names

[Andrew Bernard]

Hi Jacques,

Well, the NR states:

The name of a variable must have alphabetic characters only, no numbers, 
underscores, or dashes.

That excludes spaces explicitly. The fact that you can use a quoted string is 
undocumented and may therefore become unsupported at any time. In Scheme, you 
cannot have strings as variable identifiers. I would be disinclined to move too 
far away from Scheme syntax, even though lilypond may allow it.

Most lilypond users would write bellaMelodia, conventionally. In terms of 
readability, it’s clearer to read than the string with quotes, I reckon.

Andrew

Well, the problem is quite obvious.
Paul implemented some nice whiteout-functions, though the amount of
needed arguments is different now.

Which one do you want?
You can replace stencil-whiteout with `stencil-whiteout-box' and it
should work. `stencil-whiteout' itself takes more arguments now, among
them a `style'-argument, which may be set to 'outline or 'rounded-box
and some padding is possible.

Though, I have a problem with it, thus cc-ing Paul and David

(1)
stencil-whiteout-box uses define*-public and optional arguments, I
thought it's broken in guilev2
If it's ok here I have not understood the subtletyies when usage is ok
and when not. I would appreciate any hint (link) helping me to
understand.
If it's not ok, it should be fixed, ofcourse. Though in general, would
dotted syntax be an alternative?
Like (define-public (stencil-whiteout-box stil . rest) ...)

(2)
The doc-string for `stencil-whiteout' implies that @var{thickness} is
optional. As far as I understand it's not.

Cheers,
  Harm

I used to have LilyPond installed via MacPorts and use it for development.
 But maintaining that became too hard -- there would be occasional random
breakages that would need to be fixed.  So I moved to just using LilyDev
for my development environment.  I do install development releases on my
Mac and use them with Frescobaldi for my engraving work.

Hello Harm (et al.),

Attached is the pedal stencil-altering function you wrote for me back in 2013 
(v. 2.17.20).
(BTW: I use this function all the time. Thanks!)

Recently, I’ve been thinking about generalizing it and submitting it as a 
patch, with a few small improvements (e.g., it would be great to have 
parameters for the trailing text and padding). But before I got around to that, 
I upgraded to 2.19.34, and it’s stopped working:
In procedure stencil-whiteout in expression (stencil-whiteout new-sim-stil) 
[…]
Wrong number of arguments to #

It seems to work fine with 2.19.31, if that helps narrow down the issue.
n.b. Applying convert-ly didn’t seem to fix the problem.

If you could fix it for me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Even more appreciated would be to add those arbitrary text and padding 
parameters.  ;)

Thanks,
Kieren.

Only in connection with currying.  So

(define*-public ((...

is (possibly) going to cause trouble while

(define*-public (...

is ok.

Works but may end up in less readable code where "rest" is actually
being used.

Should it be?  Would that have saved us from the error?

Rotation.

[Hwaen Ch'uqi]

Greetings All,

I see from the NR that there are ways of rotating individual objects
or text markups. Is there a way of rotating an entire score?

Thank you for any help.

They would write bellaMelodia since there is (was) no alternative to
separate "words" in a variable name. 2.19.33 seems to accept dashes and
underscores as well. Maybe the NR needs updating?

Re: Lilypond console output stdout/stderr

The GNU guidelines state (roughly): write to stdout what is asked for, and
to stderr what is not asked for.

  $ foo --bar
  Usage: foo [options] arg<-- stderr
  $ foo --help
  Usage: foo [options] arg<-- stdout

Given this line of reasoning, lilypond -dshow-available-fonts should write
the list to stdout.
