Re: Not recognizing "\notes", install problem?
Thanks for your reply. I realize now that the file grace.ly is quite old. I am new to Lilypond, so hadn't realized this. I found a newer version of bagpipe.ly that installed with Lilypond, and see that most of the command names have changed over the older version of the file I had. I've managed to edit the file grace.ly to make it produce the expected output. - \include "bagpipe.ly" \paper { linewidth = 8.0 \in raggedright = ##t } \score { { \mixolydian \grg a4 \grg b \grg c \grg d \grg e \grg f \grA g A } } - (except for some sharp-signs, ,but those I can track down ...)

Perhaps there has been a syntax change in the bagpipe definitions. Are you returning to LilyPond from a long break?

Not recognizing "\notes", install problem?
Hi, This is probably something really simple, but I'm trying to compile the following file and I get a lot of errors (including not recognizing "\notes" as a command). I'm guessing it's an installation error and probably something obvious - can anyone point me to a fix for this?
