Undesired line spacing using embedded .ly and .tex files
I am trying to assemble a chant book using \mbinclude and \lilypondfile, but I get unexpected and undesired line spacings after the first .ly file is processed. File GradualSimple.tex \mbinclude's two other .tex files, each of which embeds by means of \lilypondfile two .ly files. The first of the .tex files is processed properly, but the second one produces what looks like double- or triple-spaced output. The files are processed by means of the following commands: lilypond-book GradualSimple.tex latex GradualSimple.latex I am attaching the dvi output, as well as the source files. Any tips or hints on how to fix the line spacing will be greatly appreciated. -- Oscar A. Valdez - Este mensaje fue enviado usando IMP (the Internet Messaging Program).

\mbinput is broken [Was: Re: nested lilypond-book files?]
\include and \input are the standard LaTeX procedures to split a long document into several .tex files. lilypond-book requires that the commands be used as \mbinclude and \mbinput with Lilypond .ly files. \mbinclude works as expected, and, like plain \include, does a \clearpage before and after the included file. \mbinput, however, is broken. lilypond-book crashes with the following output: Traceback (most recent call last): File /usr/bin/lilypond-book, line 1540, in ? do_file(input_filename) File /usr/bin/lilypond-book, line 1424, in do_file chunks = read_doc_file(input_filename) File /usr/bin/lilypond-book, line 1007, in read_doc_file chunks = chop_chunks(chunks, 'input', do_input_file, 1) File /usr/bin/lilypond-book, line 953, in chop_chunks newchunks = newchunks + func(m) File /usr/bin/lilypond-book, line 880, in do_input_file return read_doc_file(m.group('filename')) IndexError: no such group Is this a known bug, or is there something wrong with my installation? I need to use \mbinput, because I don't want the \clearpages inserted by \mbinclude. Oscar A.

Oscar == What you can use is the standard LaTeX procedure for splitting a document into several files, using \include or \input (read some LaTeX introduction on the difference between these two). However, for some strange reason, you should use the commands \mbinclude and \mbinput instead in lilypond-book. This was recently discussed in the mailing list. Example main.lilybook: \documentclass{blah} \begin{document} \mbinclude{mvmt2.lilybook} \end{document} mvmt2.lilybook: % Note, no \begin{document} here, since that's already % done in the main file lilypondfile{score-2a.ly} /Mats - Este correo se envio usando IMP Webmail Visite el proyecto en: http://horde.org/imp ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Q on Lilybook - mixing notes and text
lilypond-book is pretty good at mixing lilypond music with tex (or Latex) text. However, it forces one to learn how to use (in my case) Latex, and it operates within the constraints of Latex. Latex requires some getting used to, though. It certainly is not your ordinary WYSIWYG word processor: it's a completely different, but very powerful animal. The not so Short Introduction to LaTeX at http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/lshort/english/ is a decent primer to Latex. Hope this helps.

Re: Increasing the horizontal space between notes
I figured out the proper syntax for changing SpacingSpanner properties. Esentially, it goes like this: \score{ ... ... \paper{ \translator{ \ScoreContext SpacingSpanner \override #'spacing-increment = #2.0 } } } I've tried: SpacingSpanner \override #'spacing-increment = #4.0 and SpacingSpanner \override #'common-shortest-duration = #(make-moment 1 8) but they don't do what I want: simply increase the horizontal space between notes.

Cheers, - Graham \break is highly recommended, but if a particular measure is not wide enough, there are tricks you could use, probably more than these: 1. Put some spaces in text above or below notes, like this: { }{ } or \ \ \ \, 2. Add invisible rests or 32nd notes or something like that. (remove the appropriate engravers of the added voice). The invisible voice is the way most likely to swim over the shifting sands of syntax, and there's no programming. ;-) DaveA -- Oscar A.

Re: install problem with libguile.so.9
I had the same problem with Red Hat 7.2. I was able to update guile so that Lilypond installed, but then GnuCash wouldn't run. Since GnuCash was more indispensable, I had to live without Lilypond for a few months. May I suggest you upgrade to Red Hat 8.0? With it, both Lilypond and GnuCash run fine. I've used RH's Upgrade install option, and it worked quite painlessly. Oscar ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

I think the offending message got through Mailman's spam filter.

Settings for a hymn book
The following should be the first of several consecutive chants and hymns. The first score is a salutation, and the second is the response. There are two things I would like to change, but don't know how: 1) The notes (especially in the second score) seem to be vertically centered on the staff, with excessive space between them. I would like them to be left-aligned, and closely spaced. 2) I would like the opus header to appear only once, before the first score, and not twice, before each score. Help will be appreciated.
