Re: unable to install version 2.0
Hi David, Thanks. Yes, I do set the PATH (in my case in .bashrc) and I also use bash aliases similarly. I might have the install problem solved. I did "apt-get remove lilypond" and then I executed the install script as before. I had mistakenly run the wrong version previously, but when I tried again, v2.0 hang until I removed the older version. After that, v2.0 now runs correctly. (PS: I installed to a private ~/bin folder that I use for various things.) Thank you for your help getting me going. -- Tom

Re: Intervalic Chord Names
That worked perfectly! Thank you. I am not very familiar with lilypond internals, but now I am also intrigued by your solution. I am determined now to learn scheme. :-) > > Do you need lowercase numbers (i to vii) too? And how about accidentals? > I am comfortable with IVm7 or IV-7 but I am curious how you would select lowercase ii, vi, etc.? If the chord is c:m7 would that choose lowercase somehow? That would be pretty cool. Now I'm thinking of expanding this to respect the key (e.g. if the key is changed to F, would the intervalic chords remain unchanged in the output?) I don't really need to do that; just wondering aloud. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Intervalic Chord Names
Hello. (Trying this again in plain text. Sorry for duplication but my previous try didn't seem to go through.) I need some help figuring out how to change chord names (C, F, G) into intervals such as (I, IV, V). The short example below displays a timing diagram for a melodic line, but I would also like to display the chords C7, F7 as generic intervals I7 IV7. Manually setting the text would okay -- I'm not looking for some kind of automatic translation, although that would be neat. I know I can do this with markup, but I do not want to add markup statements to noteValues! Do I need to set chordRootNamer somehow? Or is there another solution? Thanks for any advice. \version "2.18.2" globalDefs = { \clef "treble_8" \key c \major \time 4/4 } noteValues = { a4 a4 a8[ a8] a4 | a4 a4 a2 | a4 a8[ a8] a4 a4 | a2 a8[ a8] a4 \bar "|." } chordValues = \chordmode { % \set chordRootNamer = ??? c1:7 f1:7 c1:7 c1:7 } \score { << \new ChordNames { \chordValues } \new RhythmicStaff = "Timing" << \new Voice = "Rhythm" { \globalDefs \omit RhythmicStaff.Fingering \improvisationOn \noteValues } % Rhythm Voice >> >> } ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Yes, I guess it's fortunate that does works for the snippet example, but it doesn't help me with my other numerous chord names I have to change (I am designing custom fretboard diagrams for guitar). Specifying the chord as an 11th when it isn't that at all is not very attractive. How do I edit the engraved text shown for a chord name? I am stuck for a solution.
