Well, the equivalent of "sure, I agree this sucks" from the "highest level" is not exactly the most brilliant endorsement, even if it may be personally satisfying. Which reminds me of the old joke "I'll believe that Microsoft is able to deliver products that don't suck when they start selling vacuum cleaners". At any rate, nobody will claim in good conscience that LilyPond does not have its dirty corners. -- David Kastrup ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: No lyric extenders for RhythmicStaff if music comes from a variable
Some curly braces seem to help: \new RhythmicStaff { \Melodie \addlyrics { Once there was a way __ } } Using \displayMusic shows that use of the variable versus the explicit \relative produces a different S-expression, but I am not sure where the fault lies. I never managed to get the parser to group \addlyrics just with the desired expressions. Operator priorities for shift/reduce conflict resolution are hard to get right, and this is the major case where I did not manage even though there are several issues and patches trying to fix it. Well, to summarize: In less than an hour after posting a question / potential bug report, there is - a quick & easy solution provided by an experienced fellow user, - an explanation and some perspective from the main developer working on that part of the code. Unbeatable. And on top of this, the excellent quality that LilyPond produces (which is often remarked upon by students & colleagues that see my worksheets containing lots of Lilypond music examples). It's simply wonderful to work with this program - thanks so much! Best Lukas ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

No lyric extenders for RhythmicStaff if music comes from a variable
Dear list, consider: \version "2.19.80" Melodie = \relative g' { g8 16 16 16 8.~ 4 r } \new Staff \Melodie \addlyrics { Once there was a way __ } \new RhythmicStaff \Melodie \addlyrics { Once there was a way __ } \new Staff \relative g' { g8 16 16 16 8.~ 4 r } \addlyrics { Once there was a way __ } \new RhythmicStaff \relative g' { g8 16 16 16 8.~ 4 r } \addlyrics { Once there was a way __ } As can be seen, the second example does not contain the Lyric extender.
