Hello,
I think I figured out what happened:
Since I just had installed the new TeXLive 7 distribution on my PC, I
wanted to keep that as my default.
Therefore I tried quite hard to have the teTeX and LiveTeX distributions
coexist.
Today I re-installed tetex-tiny several times (due to clashes of
environment variables (TEXMFCNF) settings there where some problems),
until it produced proper output. Now the spacing looks perfect.
I had thaught that lilypond already takes care of the proper spacing and
LaTeX only does the typesetting, but the two programs are much more
interwoven.
So the solution will likely be to keep a subset of the teTeX-tiny
package -- just latex.{fmt,exe} and the kpathsea-related programs and of
course a proper texmf.cnf file, which points to the proper directory
trees in the TeXLive branch. Or maybe I switch over from LiveTeX to
teTeX. (Since I have Win2k and Redhat linux on my PC, I would prefer to
use a common distribution).
Thanks for your valuable hints!
Alois

Hello,
an (partial) answer to my own question:
I just tried the same input with lilypond 1.6.4 on an RedHat 7.3 system and it
worked nicely. I will have to look into the cygwin tree, whether there are
any old files hidden.
Best regards

Re: Lyrics spacing with lilypond 1.6.4
Hello,
thanks quite a lot for your answer!
Unfortunately I did send an out-of-phase input file (I experimented with
different settings). Now I rerun the example at home with the final block
\score {
\simultaneous {
\addlyrics
\context Staff = mel
{
\melody }
\context Lyrics \text
}
\midi { \tempo 4=120}
\paper { papersize = "a4" }
}
and obtained just one line with several overlaps in the text.
An additional question: The midi output doesn't seem to produce any
sound when played with Winamp on Win2000. What might be the reason?
Best regards
Alois

This file should work fine, as long as you uncomment your paper
block:
> \midi { \tempo 4=120}
> %\paper { linewidth = 13.0 \cm }
> }
like so:
\paper { linewidth = 13.0 \cm }
}
I suspect that you have been looking at previous versions, because
the file you sent doesn't generate paper output.

Lyrics spacing with lilypond 1.6.4
Hello,
this week I tried the cygwin port of the new version 1.6.4 with a little song.
Since the letters of the lyrics overlap each other, I assume that I have to
set some flag to change the spacing rule (from note-length proportional to
(maximum) word-width).
Is there any flag for archieving sufficient space (except placing many breaks,
which the yields very large space for long notes with short text)?
Best wishes
Alois
