Midi issue
Greetings Lilyponders --
Can't figure out why the midi output from this file does not include all
the piano voices. Any help would be appreciated.
By the way, the new point-and-click method using URI tags is brilliant.
One observation: the manual sez the EDITOR variable should be set to
"vim". It actually should be set to "gvim". Additionally, an instance of
the browser needs to be running already for the call to gvim to work, at
least the way I have things set up. Just thought I'd offer these
comments to help non-supergeeky users such as myself.
Thanks a lot,
Carter

Output problem
Greetings fellow Lilyponders, I've started getting odd behaviour from Lilypond, starting with version 2.4.2 and now on through 2.4.5. To be more specific, the odd behaviour is coming from dvips. It refuses to produce ps and pdf output files as in the good old days of yore. Now it seems to want to produce the wrong format (a4) and send it directly to my printer. I don't want this. I just want nice ps and pdf files produced automatically. Here is the message I get: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Music]$ lilypond brahms.ly GNU LilyPond 2.4.5 Processing `brahms.ly' Parsing... Interpreting music... [8][10] Preprocessing graphical objects... Calculating line breaks... [3][6][9][10] Layout output to `brahms.tex'... Converting to `brahms.dvi'... Converting to `brahms.ps'...

Return value 256 I do get preview files, but this is really not ideal as I'd like to be able to work with point-and-click xdvi and gvim, as I always have. I read the man pages for dvips to find out how to alter this weird behaviour, but they were singularly unhelpful about where to locate the offending configuration files. Any help would be very gratefully received, as I'm fairly clueless about TeX and its siblings. I'm running Fedora Core 3 with updated Ghostscript version 8.15rc2-3 and ec-fonts-mftraced version 1.0.9-1.

Re: xdvi font troubles
Many thanks to both Han Wen and Mats. I guess I just like being a source
compilation sort of guy. When I have time, I'll follow that advice and
fiddle with the TEXMF variable. In the meantime, I devised a ridiculous
kludge and made a symbolic link from my music compilation directory to
one of the music-drawing-routines.ps files in
/usr/local/share/lilypond/2.x/ps. It works fine.
Ciao,
Carter

I guess the main problem is that you tried to install your
own version of xvi. In a normal teTeX installation, all paths
are found by looking at /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf
(or wherever teTeX is installed). The settings in lilypond-profile
rely on this, which makes it possible to all the LilyPond-related
paths by just adding an extra texmf-like tree. This is done by
setting the TEXMF variable. The music-drawing-routines.ps is
normally found in usr/local/share/lilypond/2.*.*/tex/
(make install gives you two copies of the file, as Ferenc has
pointed out).
It seems that you followed the instructions in the reference manual
to install a newer xdvi. However, this requires some care to make
sure that the new xdvi works well together with your existing teTeX.
It's probably easier to install the full teTeX version 2.x, which
contains xdvik version 22.40v, that is fully capable of the
point-and-click feature that probably is the reason you installed
a newer xdvi.
In the texmf.cnf file for teTeX 2.0, I found the following lines
that may explain why your xdvi doesn't find the correct paths:
% support non"k"-xdvi:
PKFONTS.XDvi= .;$TEXMF/%s;$VARTEXFONTS/pk/{%m,modeless}//
VFFONTS.XDvi= .;$TEXMF/%s
PSHEADERS.XDvi = .;$TEXMF/%q{dvips,fonts/type1}//
TEXPICTS.XDvi = .;$TEXMF/%q{dvips,tex}//
If this still doesn't work and you insist on keeping your xdvi 22.81,
you probably want to fiddle with the PSHEADERS or TEXPICTS variables
instead of XDVIINPUTS.

I ran the command: . ~/bin/lilypond-profile However, I did realize that I had been copying the template file buildscripts/lilpond-profile.sh, instead of buildscripts/out/lilypond-profile to my ~/bin directory. Once I copied the correct file, the noteheads appeared, but still no beams or slurs. And I still get the message: "Cannot find PostScript file for inclusion in document: music-drawing-routines.ps" So I'm still stumped. I can see that the file "music-drawing-routines.ps" is in /usr/local/share/lilypond/2.0.2/ps, but how do I make xdvi see it? Do I add that path to the XDVIINPUTS variable?

xdvi font troubles
Forgive me for asking what is probably the most common sort of question,
but after successfully compiling and installing LilyPond 2.0.2, as well
as xdvi 22.81, I get this message from xdvi when trying to open a dvi
file generated by lilypond:
"Cannot find PostScript file for inclusion in document:
music-drawing-routines.ps"
The xdvi output has gibberish for noteheads, as well as other problems.
I ran buildscripts/clean-fonts.sh as root after compiling lilypond,
added lilypond-profile to my ~/bin directory and sourced it, and added
this as well to my .bash_profile:
XDVIINPUTS='/usr/share/texmf/{xdvi,dvips//}'
Ggv reads the corresponding ps file perfectly, yet I cannot get usable
output with xdvi. What have I neglected to do?
Many thanks in advance,
Carter Brey

Re: guile for lilypond on Red Hat 9
i was using the GUI rpm installer, and the window would simply dissappear before running to completion, without the final message window which usually tells you either that the package has installed successfully or that some dependencies have not been met, etc. since my last message, i have finally been successful in getting lilypond 1.8.0-1 running on RedHat 9, as follows: 1. installed guile-1.6.4-7.1.i386.rpm using command-line rpm (no problems there) 2. installed lilypond-1.8.0-1.i386.rpm using command-line rpm (no problems) 3. installed lilypond-documentation-1.8.0-1.i386.rpm using command-line rpm (no problems) 4. when running ly2dvi, got dynamic link error message (can't find libguile-srfi-srfi-13-14-v-1.so) 5. installed guile-devel-1.6.4-7.1.i386.rpm to provide the .so file 6. ly2dvi runs fine it looks like lilypond is dynamically linked and requires guile-devel, but that dependency is not required by the lilypond rpm. perhaps that needs to be fixed. is this a correct diagnosis, or is something else going on here? anyway, i am DELIGHTED to finally have it running! best, -p What about other applications that depend on the out-of-the-box guile that Red Hat 9 provides? I'm screwed if I can't use Gnucash, which I use for all my tax reporting. Will it run linked to guile-1.6.4-7.1?

Right now I'm using the ^# command like this for example: mi4^#`(Large "Allegro non troppo") But this comes out messed up very frequently, especially if there are slurs under the text - the text goes over the slurs. Can I control the vertical location of the text somehow? Best regards, I use two ways to do this, depending on my mood or level of impatience. Method 1: \property Voice.TextScript \override #'extra-offset = #'(x . y) The variable x represents the horizontal axis (shifting the text left or right) and the variable y represents the vertical, or up-down axis. They can be positive or negative numbers, and can also be fractions (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, etc). Positive x values move the text right; positive y values move the text up. Experiment to see what works best. The one you don't need to change should be set at 0. Remember to reset the values afterward with \property Voice.TextScript \revert #'extra-offset. Method 2: Just add as many blank placeholders as you need: mi4^""^""^#'(Large "Allegro con cattivo gusto e tanti urli bestiali") Hope this helps, Cheers, Carter ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

In UNIX/Linux there is a beautiful command "convert" which translates one picture format into another. If you create a single page postscript file mymusic.ps with lilypond, then with the command ... convert mymusic.ps mymusic.png David is right, and 'convert' will also automatically create separate png files for each page of a mulitpage ps file. Boy, does this make sense. It's a beautiful example of a tiny Unix command that you can daisychain onto your lilypond command, e.g. ly2dvi -P foo.ly && convert foo.ps foo.png will produce foo.png.0 and foo.png.1 if foo.ps is a two-page postscript file.

Slur placement problem
Hello, friends--
I finished my Tchaikovsky score last month, but have been struggling
with one nagging problem for weeks. In a certain passage with the two
flutes, no matter what I do with /slurUp or /slurDown switches and
attachment overrides, I cannot for the life of me get the slurs to come
out right. I don't know whether it's a part combiner bug, or if I'm
simply doing something dumb, but I can't make it so that the slurs for
Flute I are above the beams and the slurs for Flute II are below the beam.
I'm attaching an abbreviated pair of source files that give just the
flute parts and just the variation in question. One runs ly2dvi -P on
short-score.ly
Many thanks,
Carter

That's why Mats suggests inserting a manual break before the line where you want the new staves to appear. If you have, for example, a Hinckelhorn part in your score, and the Hinckelhorn only has one note at the beginning of a line, LilyPond will print the Hinckelhorn staff, rests and all, for the entire width of that system.

Re: part combiner questions
her way, when running in client mode, xdvi will always return immediately. This is set up so that other programs such as text editors may invoke xdvi in ``client mode'' to jump to a specific place in the dvi file corresponding to the current cursor position in the .tex file, and the user can continue editing without having to close the xdvi window first. The argument for filename should match the file name used for the source specials in the dvi file. The space before the filename is optional; it is only needed to avoid ambi guity if filename starts with a digit or a colon. Note that the argument needs to be enclosed in quotes if a space is used, to prevent the shell from misinterpreting the space as argument separator. Source specials in the dvi file must have one of the fol lowing formats: src:line[ ]filename src:line:col[ ]filename src:line src:line:col src::col If filename or line are omitted, the most recent values are used.

part combiner questions
Hello, all-- I'm about halfway through a big orchestral score (Tchaikovsky's Rococo Variations, Original Version), and I've been running into a couple of mildly frustrating problems with the part combiner. I've enclosed a zip file with just the two flute parts to illustrate, although the phenomena occur in all the wind and brass parts: 1) Dynamic indications, both hairpins and dynamic texts, are duplicated in both parts even when they occur at identical times, thereby taking up unnecessary space above the staff; 2) The above phenomenon is not consistent; look at the (missing) diminuendo hairpin below the staff in variation 5, bars 239-240. 3) When there is only the first part playing, the stems are still up, taking up way too much space above the staff, and the rests for the second part are unnecessarily printed, even though soloAdue is on and the "I" is indicated next to the active part. What am I doing wrong?

Hi, Yes, Lily 1.5.58 won't compile past a certain file size. Per your advice, I've been struggling for the past week to get 1.5.63 to compile from source, wothout success. I run gcc 3.0.4 on Linux kernel 2.4.17, and for the first time am running into this Flex problem with this version of gcc. The patch fails every time (no clue why), and I've even tried replacing lines 21 through 28 in lexer.cc by hand after the intial flex run (perhaps I'm doing something wrong here?), and still my compile grinds to a halt after 10 minutes or so. It's a bummer but not enough of one to make me downgrade my gcc version with a dialup connection from a hotel room! If anyone has an insight, I's be so grateful. In the meantime I can compile my score piecemeal and will patiently wait for a) a binary release of 1.5.63 or b) 1.6.

Source compilation problems
Hi, I'm trying to upgrade from a binary rpm version of 1.5.58 to compiling 1.5.63 from source.

latex failure problem
Hello--
I've been working on a full orchestral score for a while and have begun
running into a perplexing problem. To save compiling time I usually use
the
\property Score.skipTypesetting = ##t
feature, just typesetting the part I'm currently working on and every
once in a great while commenting the "skip typesetting" instruction so
that I can see how the whole thing looks so far. Until yesterday I never
had a problem with this, but after the score reached a certain length I
started to get this error message at the very end of the compile:

I can skip all but the very end or very beginning of the score and get a

makes latex choke. Any help gratefully appreciated. I'm attaching the
two files zipped together, in case that helps.

Manipulating text markup in soloAdue mode
Hi, It seems inevitable that, when using soloAdue with part combining, words such as "solo" and "a2" clash with slurs or other markings. Is it possible to change their spacing?

Performance indications
Hello--
Here's a question that refers specifically to multi-voice scores. I'm
running Lilypond 1.4.13 on a modified RH 7.2 distro.
I wrote a quartet score using the two-file technique detailed in the
manual (os-music.ly, os-score.ly), using a little additional help from
the opus-130 example included with the source. Everything works fine,
including part extraction, but there's one thing that I cannot seem to
do. I'd like to put the usual sort of performance indication at the
beginning ("Allegro," for example), but have it appear only above the
orchestra staff in the full score while appearing in each extracted
part. If one puts it in the\notes for each voice as a text grob attached
to a note or rest, it of course appears above every voice in the score,
which looks silly. On the other hand, this is the only way I know of to
have it appear in an extracted part.
Is there a way to put such an indication in the "global" settings along
with key and meter? I notice that there is an attempt to do something
this in the opus-130.ly, but it does not appear in the printout at all.
It reads:
\property Voice.TextScript \set #'font-style = #'large
s8^"Allegro assai"
As I said, this has absolutely no effect on the Postscript result at
all; it's as if it never existed, at least on my setup.
Such a capability should also include the potential for changes, such as
a section in a new tempo. In the "global" list I guess it would appear
as a \skip.
Thanks so much.

Numbering of repeated bars
Hi, all--
I'd be grateful if you could have a look at the attached and help me
solve a very minor problem. There are fifteen or so bars at the end
which repeat, and I put numbers over them to help keep the player from
getting lost if he starts to think about his taxes or the last episode
of "ER". Once the numerals become two-digit starting at 10, Lilypond
refuses to compile unless I enclosed them in quotes. That's fine, but
they appear in a larger, less attractive font than the single digits.
Any workaround? I know there's a technique for repeated bars in which
the numbers appear over the barlines, but I really want them over the
notes.
I'm using Lilypond 1.4.13 and Linux kernel 2.4.17.
Thanks,
Carter

Piano staff plus voice
Hi-- Attribute it if you will to a double-digit IQ, but I cannot figure out how to create a simple piano score with a voice line either on its own staff above the piano part or with lyrics set between the two piano lines, within the piano staff. I downloaded examples to study from Mutopia, but they are all complicated by alternative languages or mulitple verses. I can't seem to untangle what I need. The "lyrics" sections of the manual only deal with a single accompanimental line. When you have the time, I would very much appreciate help with the most basic ways to set up these two kinds of vocal scores (voice on its own line above the piano part, and lyrics alone within the piano staff). Thanks very much. By the way, some colleagues who use (very expensive) Mosaic on their Macs were quite impressed with the printed Lilypond output that I showed them, especially when I pointed out that the total cost of the software involved was $0.00.

straight through the slur and is therefore illegible. I know the
solution must include some sort of "/override" command but can't find a
specific example.
\score {
\notes {
\time 4/4
\clef tenor
\key g \minor
{ r4^#'((bold large) "Molto lento") g8\p\<( a )bes4 \times 2/3
{d'8( f' \!)ees'} }
Thank very much for your help. I've been so thankful for this program,
but have been plagued by this small problem.
