segmentation fault

2006-01-24 Thread Arthur Dyck
I have installed 2.7.28 on Fedora Core 4.  When I try to process a file,
I get the following:

error: can't open for write: praise.midi: Permission denied
/usr/local/bin/lilypond: line 3:  2647 Segmentation fault
/usr/local//lilypond/usr/bin/lilypond $@

I saw the Permissioned denied and tried running lilypond as a
superuser.  It worked fine.

Does anyone know how I can fix this?  I don't want to keep using
superuser.

uninstalling lilypond

2006-01-13 Thread Arthur Dyck
I have installed the lilypond-2.7.19 package but have had segmentation fault 
errors that haven't been cleaned up on Mandrake 10.1.  Is there a way to 
uninstall the lilypond but leave the ghostscript?  I would like to try to 
install from source to see if I can get this working.  It seems the package 
removal program takes out both.

Segmentation fault

2006-01-07 Thread Arthur Dyck
I have tried installing both lilypond-2.6.4.3.x86.package and 
lilypond-2.7.19.x86.package on Mandrake 10.1.  Both installs went smoothly 
once I figured out that I had to change the permissions to make the file 
executable.  However, when I try to process a file I get a segmentation fault 
error.  I've looked around but can't seem to find a specific fix.  I did 
reinstall guile.  

Any help would be appreciated.

 Did this happen with a particular file, or just *any* file?  Like,

 ?

 If it's anything, try running lilypond -V foo.ly  (where foo.ly is
 that small snippet above) and send the result to bug-lilypond.

No, it failed on the snippet also with the following:

lilypond install on Fedora Core 4

2006-01-02 Thread Arthur Dyck
I am having difficulty installing the lilypond binary on a new
installation of FC4 due to the ghostscript 8.15 dependency.  This is the
case with both 2.6 and 2.7.  I have tried installing ghostscript as per
the Install page in documentation.  My terminal program does not
recognize rpmbuild as a valid command so I just downloaded the rpm and
installed it.  I have also tried installing gs from source.  Lilypond
does not seem to be able to find this newer version.  Could someone who
is running lilypond on FC4 check and see where their ghostscript is
installed?  Or does someone have another suggestion as to what the issue
might be?  

Happy New Year.

No, I didn't.  I tried that now, and rpmbuild doesn't seem to be a valid

  Other question: Can I add images and symbols to a Lilypond score?
  See, I work with modern notation, so I need a lot of resources that
  normaly are not used in traditional notation.

 If lilypond-book isn't enough for your purpose, maybe you'll have to
 include the output of lilypond into other softwares for further
 processing.  I think that scribus and inkscape were mentioned on
 this ML.

Joining your syllables or words with an underscore will place them all under

Re: Hello! Complicated newbie questions!

2005-11-04 Thread Arthur Dyck
I'm on a steep learning curve also, and the list has been great.  There are a 
couple of other things you can do.  Download the manual onto your machine and 
then do word searches for what you are trying to do.  For example, if you do 
a search for transparent, you 'll find ways to make bars, notes and stems 
transparent, among other things.

Another thing I have been doing is finding templates wherever I can and then 
using or adapting them.  People will often send you a template if you tell 
them what you are trying to do.  Another good place to look is 
www.mutopiaproject.org.  There you'll find lots of different styles of music 
with both the pdf and .ly files.

Finally, don't forget about Google.  It will often take you straight to list 
archives regarding your search.

You sound really excited about Lilypond, as are we all.  But you might get 
more responses if you split up your questions into separate emails with their 
own subject line.

 Hi everyone!

 people here might be able to point me in the right direction.

 First, here are the simple questions:

 1. how can I make a small note? like, sometimes in a bass part
 (vocal) there's an additional note an octave down, sometimes small,
 sometimes in brackets, indicating that you can sing it if you're
 able. I see in the manual an incredibly complex way to change the
 notehead size in a chord. That's too much effort. I managed to do it
 like this:

  \relative c
  \new Staff {
  \clef bass
  {c4 c c c f f e2
 d4 d c c b g c2 \\ \tiny c,}
  }

 That's not too bad, trouble is the note has a seperate stem, which
 might not be what you want. Is there any other way to do this?

 2. Similarly, can I print a notehead with NO stem?

 3. What about putting parentheses around a note in the score ie (o)

 4. One other simple one. I'm sure I saw somewhere in the
 documentation a way to extend lines, something like
 \header{
  composer = Mozart  \\
  \line the child prodigy
 }

 or something like that. But, now I can't find it any more!


 OK, now, here are the tough questions.

 5. I'm inputting cyrillic text. I've noticed that if cyrillic and
 latin text coincide, they collide in a mess. Is this a known problem?
 I'll send an example, but I don't know if this list will take
 attachments. Basically if I write cyrillic latin cyrillic in, say,
 \header{
   title = cyrillic latin cyrillic
 }

 the result on the score will be cyriic where ## indicates
 overlapped text.

 6. I'm trying to understand how to format a choral score. Of
 particular interest is how the words get attached etc.I looked at the
 examples in section 3 of the manual, but that's not quite what I
 want. So far, I've settled on this:

 \score
 {
  \context ChoirStaff
  
  \context Staff = bari
  
  \clef bass
  \mainvoice


  \context Lyrics = bari \mainwords

  \context Staff = bass
  
  \clef bass
  \secondvoice



 }

 Am I doing this right? Among the things I don't understand are how/
 when the names apply (bari), and where the lyrics get stuck. In my
 example, if I move my \context Lyrics line below the second staff,
 the words print there as well. Yet, in the manual clearly the words
 are tied to the staff explicitly?

 7. Finally (for now), I'm having trouble aligning lyrics to music. I
 have this:
 mainvoice = \relative c
 {
  \key a \minor

  \repeat volta 2
  {
  \partial 8*3
  e8 a8.  [ b16] c2~c8 b16 a gis8. a16 b2 r8
  }
 }

 mainwords = \lyricmode{ one -- two -- three -- four five six }

 So, the end of sylable four should align with c2~c8.. It does, but
 five is also under the c2, not under the subsequent b16 where it
 belongs. I've tried adding _ and __ and even _ __, but there doesn't
 seem to be any effect. Am I doing something wrong? Same problem in
 English and Cyrillic.

 Greatly appreciate any help people can give me. This is a very cool
 program, and I'd very much like to use it more!

 Thanks,

 Markian

 When arguing with an idiot, be sure they aren't doing the same.

 Yes, but you have to work with multiple files, and multiple
 applications. That gets tiresome and errorprone if you have many (over
 40) fragments.


Maybe I'm living in blissful ignorance of the problems that are ahead of me.  
The project I'm working on will have well over a hundred fragments.

Re: extra bar

Thank you both for your suggestions.  They are very helpful.

 Actually, \cadenzaOn is just a shorthand for

 Arthur's code would probably work as expected if changed
 score.timing into Score.timing or Timing.Timing (the latter
 is recommended) or the shorthand \cadenzaOn.
 Note that LilyPond is sensitive about uppercase/lowercase!

 Otherwise it will add bars in 4/4 (default) time.

Scribus - alternative to lilybook?

2005-11-02 Thread Arthur Dyck
I haven't seen anything on this list about Scribus, a linux-based desktop 
publishing program.  I have been playing with it and it has some interesting 
features.  Basically, you define your page size with borders and then create 
text or image boxes for your input.  You can import lilypond pdf images 
directly into your image box.  You can then put transparent text boxes on top 
of your image allowing you to do anykind of markup anywhere.  I wouldn't 
recommend it for a an ordinary sheet of music, but I think it adds some 
interesting possibilites.  I am trying to learn how to use it and how to use 
Lilypond at the same time as I'm working on a liturgy, so it's making for 
some long -- but fun -- days.

transparent stem

I've just started using lilypond and I think I'm over my head with the music

Stem #'transparent = ##t a4.  This isn't working for me.  What am I doing

lyric placement

2005-07-11 Thread Arthur Dyck
I'm just starting to play with lp by working on a hymn.  The format  is upper 
and lower piano staves with the verses in the middle.  I was using chords for 
the upper and lower until I came to a place where I had two 8th notes in the 
soprano over a 1/4 in the alto.  I don't know if it's the best way, but I 
found a way to do it.  The problem is that I can't get a lyric to print under 
those notes.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.
