Re: Tweaking Jedit LilyPondTool?
It would be easy enough to define a variable which would use your preferred naming scheme in place of the official one. So, usually c# is notated as cis. Define a variable: cb={cis} Then you can use cb in place of cis: a \cb b \cb You merely need to use the \ to denote a variable. As someone else suggested, you put this in a file, and then include it at the beginning, and that brings your customization to each project.

Hi All, I'm just now checking out LilyPondTool and have a couple of newbie questions regarding midi input. It looks like the Score Setup Wizard is the place to set up which language you would like the pitches to be notated as (cis vs. cs, etc). Ok fine but I would like to use my own pitch names since I'm marking up Turkish notation on a regular basis (as c# would be notated as "cb"). So, is there any place handy I can get in to add my own pitch naming system? And midi input will use that naming system? I've snooped around but can't find any plugin config files. Hmmm. Frescobaldi does a great thing with Rumor Settings/Guile scripts to load...there I've been able to create my own names. As always thanks in advance for any advice.

Re: ps to pdf conversion fails
If you use Ghostview, you can have a .pdf open continually, update it, and thereby increase the speed of evaluation of fixes. Ghostview is a much better .pdf viewer during development.

Re: musescore
I prepared a simple lilypond example which shows some simple things. I can send that to you or others if you were interested. It uses lilypond within LaTeX to show the simple stuff using a famous tune, plus it gets a little more elaborate. I only include attachments if people request them, so if you are interested, let me know.

I'll need some 'backup' debaters/advisors etc. and so if anybody would like to send me a friend request, well the more the merrier. I think we can get quite a few converts if we plan it right. Some kind of facebook lilypond app would help - I'm thinking of a stripped down version of omet.ca (For those interested, it's easy to just put a pre--existing webpage/webapp into a facebook iframe - it's that simple). Just a thought. M.

Re: Inserting comments into the log file
Helpful, but not in the way that I need. Essentially, I am trying to pinpoint the location of bad code. So, when I put the #(display "Test") construction, I get that to my window, but not to the same one as the errors and warnings. I had been issuing \break commands in the wrong place, and was trying to remove the incorrect \break commands. As I noted, using \barNumberCheck #2 on any other bar other than 2 will print a feedback message which can be used to track location.

Inserting comments into the log file
I have not found a command to insert a comment placed in the .ly file into the .log file. This is a useful tool for debugging. I am trying to find which of my \break commands is not acceptable, and cannot get lilypond to print line number about that. So, using a comment in the log is usually the way to go.

Incompletely filled measures
I am setting a document up in 4/4, and all is well (thanks, Xavier, for your help).In 2 cases, measures get set up as if they are 3/4, and only 3 beats are set into the measure. How can I determine what is causing this issue? Measures before and after the 2 measures incorrectly counted are fine, just 2 in the middle of a string of measures.
