OooLilyPond
Has anyone used OooLilyPond recently? Today I tried it again and was getting an error that didn't happen to me when I last used it (quite some time ago). The macro fails if I select "png" output in the the OooLilyPond config dialog. If I switch to "eps" it works again. I am using Libre Office 4.3.5.2, LilyPond 2.19.15, OooLilyPond 0.4.0 -- MT ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
OOoLilyPond
Hi folks I upgraded to LibreOffice 4.3 recently and now I'm having problems in getting OOoLilypond to actually insert a snippet although the generation works fine. FWIW I'm using Lilypond 2.19.33. Is anyone still using OOoLilypond? If so have they come across the problem, and do they have a workaround. Sorry if this is off-subject (OOoLP and not LP itself), but for me it's always been one of the killer features of lilypond that I can plug snippets directly into a text document. It would be a shame if it's no longer available. Thanks for any pointers ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Hi Roman, I also use OOoLilyPond often and had to check immediately when I read your mail. I am using LibreOffice 5.0.2.2 and OOoLilypond 4.0.0 and it still works for me.

I commented this out since the only file I'm interested in is OOoLilyPond.png which was there, and was included next. Debugging further kept throwing out errors in LibreBasic ... so I gave up. Current state is that its now inserting the image ... but holding the image source open (even if I delete the image from the document).

OooLilyPond problem
Hi, It has been some time ago since I used the OooLilyPond extension for Openoffice.org-writer. It worked nicely then. I just upgraded to Fedora 14 and decided to use it again. But now it is not working anymore. I'm getting a screen with error messages beyond my understanding as soon as I click the "Oly" button on the menubar. I'm using Openoffice.org 3.3.0, and OooLilypond 0.4.0. Maybe a change or bug in the latest Openoffice causes it? Anyone else who tried this lately ? -- Martin Tarenskeen ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Everything works fine as long as I use LilyPond 2.18.2, but I never got it to work with any 2.19 version. Apparently, LP 2.18 produces an EPS file and converts it into a PNG file. Both files are kept. With LP 2.19 (invoked by the same command) there is no EPS file with the same file name. Unfortunately, OooLilyPond always checks the presence of the EPS file (and exits if there's none), no matter if it's told to use the PNG or the EPS file. The easiest way I found was to change the way LilyPond is called, in a way that there really is an EPS file present. In the OooLilyPond macros, there is a section "LilyPond" containing a function named "CallLilyPond()". For composing the Windows command, there is a line that reads: -- sCommand = sCommand & " " & sBackendOpt & " -f png -dresolution=" & iGraphicDPI & " OOoLilyPond.ly >OOoLilyPond.out 2>&1" &Chr(10) -- This line should be replaced by: -- sCommand = sCommand & " -dno-delete-intermediate-files --png " & sBackendOpt & " -dresolution=" & iGraphicDPI & " OOoLilyPond.ly >OOoLilyPond.out 2>&1" &Chr(10) -- I've tested that with LP 2.18.2, LP 2.19.37 and LP 2.19.51, and it worked with all three versions.

Hello. I mainly use Linux but recently I've tried to use OOoLilyPond with my LibreOffice 5 on Windows 10, but it's failing. Windows 10 keeps crashing LibreOffice whenever I try to convert the LP code into my document (as normal). I keep getting BASIC errors, like "BASIC runtime error. Variable not defined". How can I fix this on Windows, I don't understand the make and eps issues mentioned in previous posts.

One question, hopefully someone knows how to fix this. I really think the font of the macro editor window is too difficult to see in its default font/size. Look at the attachment photo and you'll see what I mean. It looks kind of deformed, squished, and generally difficult to see unless you really stop and squint. Not sure why it looks so rough. Anyone know how to change the font of the macro editor window /itself /in OooLilyPond? Thanks!

I can only speak for OpenOffice, but I guess it works in a similar way on LibreOffice, so here we go: Open the OooLilyPond macro, just as you did before. There you have some tabs called "Config", "Editor", "LilyPond" etc. Select the tab called "GUI_Editor" and you get the main OLy window. Click on the editor pane to select it. Now right-click on it, a context menu should offer to edit its properties. Here you can change the font and/or font size. Somewhere in the macro editor there should also be a button or menu entry to save your changes. Does that work?

Just make sure you look in the right place ... :-) I follow the LO dev mailing list, and last I remember (probably mid last year) it was a bit of a mess with some filters importing vectors unchanged, and other filters converting it to internal LO structures.

OK, I was on my proper computer for the first time now since this thread restarted. I checked with LibreOffice 5.2.4 and could properly include a LilyPond-generated .eps graphic and export the whole document to PDF without obvious issues. So it should be possible to make OOLilyPond use vector graphics for its snippets. I think this would be a terrific feature for all those who need to include music fragments in text documents and aren't ready to take the plunge to use LaTeX. I think this should be a real incentive for (academic) music teachers to promote the use of LibreOffice and LilyPond. So it would be really great to pick up this extension and make it usable again.

For the record: The original package on SourceForge does *not* have a license included, so I have written an email to the original developer. It has been delivered, so the email account still exists - but of course that doesn't mean I will get a response. In the meantime I have extracted the archive and set up a Git repository, and if I get a positive answer I will upload it to Github under the new name LiLily. This still doesn't mean I'm ready to actually develop and maintain it further, as I don't have any experience with LibreOffice extensions.

That would be good. While I think on the long run a Python based development from scratch would be the best option this looks like more work than expected, and I think it will only happen if someone with Python knowledge and OOo/LibreOffice experience steps in.

Last I heard it took over six months to get a serious (read "dangerous") bug fixed, because no one knew how to get the build system to work to create a new release. So before you spend time "supporting" OO (that's probably why it still works for OO, because it's not been updated ...) check the release date of the version you are supporting. I think there's only been one proper release of OO since it became Apache OO, and that's how many years ago? otoh, LO is a moving target with regular releases.

However, it seems unclear (at least to me) which graphics formats the various versions of LO support on the different platforms. The official help page https://help.libreoffice.org/Writer/Inserting_a_Graphic_From_a_File actually tells *nothing* about supported formats, let alone any platform differences. > > otoh, LO is a moving target with regular releases.

I met two of them at the GSoC mentors summit but unfortunately I don't recall their names ... otherwise I'd try to write them directly. But as said, I think there should be someone with actual OO/LO experience to start working on this, be it by updating the existing extension or by writing a new one with Python (and python-ly).

I've always wondered why nobody added that option to OLy. Now I know: To auto-crop the images, OLy relies on lilypond-book-preamble.ly which only works with the EPS backend. There's already a thread for that problem, but no solution: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/How-does-the-lilypond-book-preamble-work-td191523.html It seems that lilypond-book-preamble.ly has lots of abilities... most of which are not needed here. We only need to auto-crop the resulting image. Maybe someone knows how to achieve that? -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/OOoLilyPond-tp185560p198768.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: OOoLilyPond
Hi again, recently I've done some homework... ;-) I've tried to make some additions, and the result is OOoLilyPond-0.4.2rc1.oxt - see attached. OOoLilyPond-0.oxt <http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/file/n199060/OOoLilyPond-0.oxt> Notice: This is based on the most "recent" release OOoLilyPond-0.4.1rc1.oxt from 2009 which isn't on the official site, but you can find it here: https://sourceforge.net/p/ooolilypond/discussion/614285/thread/d200563d/ On Windows, it worked fine with LibreOffice, but not with OpenOffice. New features: 1.) It's now possible to add include paths in the config dialog. 2.) Ability to save the current code to a temporary LY file and open it in an external editor, e.g. Frescobaldi. The path to the executable can be customized in the config dialog. Another button re-imports code from the temporary file back to the editor window. 3.) LilyPond's svg backend still doesn't support lilypond-book-preamble.ly would be needed for auto-cropping. Any current attempt to use OLy with svg format must work without lilypond-book-preamble.ly, e.g. with the "Direct to Lilypond" template. Paper size must be found by trial-and-error. As line-width must be given anyway, only the paper height would have to be a guess, which is maybe not that bad. Also, text fonts seem to be replaced - don't know where and why. Is there already a discussion about that? That being said: I've added svg support, and on Windows 7 I had no problems with the graphics import. It would be cool if someone also could test it on Linux and report errors. I've added two templates to play with.

Re: OOoLilyPond
...Done some homework again... ;-) Here is another take on updating OOoLilyPond. It contains some more additions: * font name and font size for editor windows can be specified * user now can choose between two different ways to import graphic into document (methods from 0.4.0 and 0.4.1rc1). and, of course, the additions already contained in rc1: * fixed: Runtime error - Variable not defined: line 40 CurserPosition=1 * additional include paths can be specified * added button to save the current code into temporary file and open it in external editor * added button to re-import code from temporary file back to editor window * added support for the use of SVG graphics format (with the known restrictions) In the attachment, there is also a readme file with more detailed information. I'v done some testing with the attached version, but certainly not in an exhaustive way... ;-) If there is (or will be) a collaboration to further develop OOoLilyPond, I'm gladly willing to join in. However, I have no idea of the python language, so I could never do a re-write from scratch on my own. In addition, my knowledge about collaboration with git repositories is absolutely zero, but I'm always open to learn. Can anyone recommend a good introduction for Windows users?

You can follow the discussion here: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/OOoLilyPond-td185560.html Changes to OOoLilyPond 0.4.2rc4 since 0.4.0/0.4.1: === * fixed: Runtime error - Variable not defined: line 40 CurserPosition=1 * additional include paths can be specified * added button to save the current code into temporary file and open it in external editor * added button to re-import code from temporary file back to editor window * added support for the use of SVG graphics format * user now can choose between two different ways to import graphic into document * font name and font size for editor windows can be specified 1.) fixed: Runtime error - Variable not defined: line 40 CurserPosition=1 -- Apparently, a small bug in OOoLilyPond prevented the correct error handling, if the expected graphics file (produced by LilyPond) could not be found. Instead, the macro stopped with the mentioned runtime error. This has now been fixed. Up to LilyPond 2.18, both an EPS file and a PNG file were present if LilyPond had been executed in PNG format. In LilyPond 2.19, this seems to have changed, only a PNG file is produced. Unfortunatly, OOoLilyPond always checked for the presence of an EPS file and stopped if there was none. This now has been changed as well: Whatever format is chosen (EPS, PNG or SVG), OOoLilyPond checks if the corresponding graphics file is present. 2.) Additional include paths can be specified -- In the configuration dialog, there is a text field where you can specify statements for additional include paths. Its entire contents is literally passed to LilyPond as a parameter. It can simply be left empty, or it can contain one or multiple include path definitions (i.e. the -I parameter) as described here: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/usage/command_002dline-usage#basic-command-line-options-for-lilypond for example: -I"C:/Users/Klaus/" -I"C:/Program Files (x86)/" (Even in Windows, LilyPond expects the paths given with forward slashes instead of backward slashes. OOoLilyPond will adapt the path statements, if necessary.) 3.) Save the current code into temporary file / re-import code from temporary file - Working in the small editor window can be somewhat cumbersome. However, it only contains the portion of the code between the %{OOoLilyPondCode%} and %{OOoLilyPondEnd%} tags.

Hi Klaus, Git is cross platform, so unless you want specifically some Windows GUI front ends, it's good to read up in the core git functionality, as it applies universally on any platform. Here is a good free online book: https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2 Using github and the like - they are just interfaces over core git, and github for example has extensive online help about github specific features. The UNIX man pages for git are clear and helpful, and even include git tutorials, and summary pages of the 20% of commands you use 80% of the time.

OOoLilyPond question
I've got OOoLilyPond apparently working. I'm collaborating with someone who prefers to work in a word processing environment. I got him to install OpenOffice on his WindowBox. That way we can easily pass the file back and forth. Now, to the real question: I put in a short musical example as a test. It was more than one line long. This was intentional. It was a nine measure snippet. It came out on three lines. Four measures on the first line, four on the second, and one on the last. Additionally, the two four-measure lines were not the same width. Why is this? Is OOoLilyPond limited to one-liners? I hope not. This would be a show-stopper. Is it because the Lily code is not contained within a \score {} block? OOoLilyPond chokes on \score {} blocks (at least on my machine). Also, I added a symlink to the templates etc. but this is not remembered by OOoLilyPond when I start it OpenOffice again (or perhaps it's after a new login or reboot).

OooLilyPond seems to be EXACTLY what I was looking for to write a book on jazz improvisation. I use Window XP and I can get it to insert simple scores in OpenOffice.org such as: \key c \minor \relative c'' { c16 es, d es c es d es c' es, d es c es d es } which is the test given in the sourceforge webpage. However, other scores that are created in LilyPond without problems, such as this one given in the LilyPond tutorial: \version "2.10.10" melody = \relative c' { \clef treble \key c \major \time 4/4 a b c d } text = \lyricmode { Aaa Bee Cee Dee } harmonies = \chordmode { a2 c2 } \score { << \new ChordNames { \set chordChanges = ##t \harmonies } \new Voice = "one" { \autoBeamOff \melody } \new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" \text >> \layout { } \midi { } }get quite a lot of "syntax error"s and "unknown escaped string"s and "unexpected string"s. Does OooLilyPond have a shorter scope than LilyPond? I've tried running both "lilypond.exe" and "lilipon-window.exe" as the executable on "config", with the same results.

There has been a significant fork which may affect this particular Lilypond project. Many/possibly most of the OOo developers quit the OOo project and have started LibreOffice in protest against the parent company that was paying for OOo development. I don't know the details but they are out there on the interwebs. LibreOffice is also at 3.3.0 beta and does not seem significantly different in any way. For Macs, there is also NeoOffice which is based on OOo, but has various patches applied to use native Mac features.

The important point is that it is no longer "OOo plus patches", it is an actively maintained project in its own right. All of the patches are now being aggressively merged into the code base (seeing as it is no longer constrained by the Sun/Oracle copyright assignment policy). They are also keen to attract developers (my name is slowly climbing up the stats of people committing changes). But pretty much all of the non-Oracle devs have jumped ship to the new project. And bear in mind that several companies (for example Novell) were expending significant resource maintaining an "OOo plus patches" program - they can now throw those resources at a proper Open Source project. It's *probable* that OpenOffice will fade into obscurity - eclipsed by the new fork. You can see the effort being thrown at it ... And while I can't be a champion for lilypond, I do read a lot of the messages on the list, even when they're outside my sphere of interest (database), so rest assured if I do see anything that I think would affect lilypond, I'll but in and mention it. That said, if you're interested in lilypond integration, go along to the website (www.libreoffice.org will redirect you), join the mailing list, and do something about it ... :-) Cheers, Wol (an unemployed NoSQL database programmer looking for a job :-) ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Dear LilyPond community, I am happy to announce a new version of OOoLilyPond - an extension for LibreOffice/OpenOffice. OOoLilyPond enables you to enter LilyPond code from within your Office document. Both the resulting image and its source code will be embedded within the document. No need to keep any additional files other than the Writer/Draw/Impress document itself. The project has been unmaintained during the last few years. With the agreement of the original author, the development of the project is now continued under the roof of openlilylib.org: https://github.com/openlilylib/LO-ly/releases Changes since v. 0.4.0: * fixed: Runtime error "Variable not defined: line 40 CurserPosition=1" * additional include paths can be specified * added button to save the current code into temporary file and open it in external editor * added button to re-import code from temporary file back to editor window * added support for the use of SVG graphics format (please read the verbose release notes) * fixed: wrong size of vector graphics in Impress/Draw * size and crop settings of existing graphics can be preserved * user now can choose between two different ways to import graphic into document * font name and font size for editor windows can be specified * user interface can be translated into other languages Compatibility: OOoLilyPond (OLy) works with recent versions of LibreOffice (5.3.0.3) and OpenOffice (4.1.3). Older versions should work as well. It has even been tested with OpenOffice 2.4 without issues. Any content (LilyPond code, templates, OLy configuration files) created with/for OLy 0.4.x will work with OLy 0.5.x - and vice versa. (Fully compatible, forward and backward.) Older snippets created with OLy 0.3.x will also work with 0.4.x and 0.5.x, but not (necessarily) vice versa. Direct download: https://github.com/openlilylib/LO-ly/releases/download/0.5.0/OOoLilyPond-0.5.0.oxt Verbose release notes: https://github.com/openlilylib/LO-ly/releases/download/0.5.0/OOoLilyPond-0.5.0-Release-Notes.txt The project is also listed in the official extension centers for LibreOffice and OpenOffice: https://extensions.libreoffice.org/extensions/ooolilypond http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/ooolilypond I hope this will be useful for many people.

OOoLilyPond 0.3.3 available
OOoLilyPond 0.3.3 is now available. What's new: The installation of OOoLilyPond is now much easier thanks to Goran Rakic who provided the OpenOffice.org extension package. The new release now works with LilyPond 2.12. Special characters in lyrics like german Umlaute are now possible under Windows. web-site: http://ooolilypond.sourceforge.net/ have fun, Samuel ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
OOoLilyPond 0.4.0 released
I'm glad to announce version 0.4.0 of OOoLilyPond, the software that combines the power of OpenOffice.org and LilyPond. The new version is now easier to use and it has many new features: - The line width and the staff size can be set in the OLy dialog. - OLy has a built in template editor. - The templates include example code and documentation (comments). - The LilyPond output is parsed and Oly jumps to the location of the error or warning while displaying the corresponding message. About OOoLilyPond: With OOoLilyPond (OLy) you can use musical notation within OpenOffice.org. Use it for writing a book on music theory or for writing down exercises for music instruments or voice which need to be commented with text. OLy is not limited to classic musical notation, you can also create guitar fret diagrams with it. You enter the music notes as text code using the LilyPond language (http://www.lilypond.org) and OLy converts it into an image within OpenOffice.org. You will need some time to get familiar with the LilyPond language but once learned, you can typeset small pieces of music much faster than with any other sofware.

OOoLilyPond trouble 2
In the midst of having trouble with OOoLilypond I decided it was time to go ahead and update my Linux installation. I did a fresh install of Fedora Core 5 (was using FC3 before). I updated everything and then installed LilyPond 2.8.7 from the install.sh. Then I installed OOoLilyPond. Then I followed the instructions and perhaps got it right this time. I was able to make it work as advertised. Yay! It was pretty cool. New problem. I had saved the small test file in *.doc format as I'm doing some work for someone who is using Word on Windows (this may or may not be relevant). When I reopened the test file and tried to edit one of the little music snippets, or add a new one, I get an error box: A Scripting Framework error occured while running the Basic script vnd.sun.star.script:OOoLilypond.OOoLilyPondMusic.main?language=Basic&locaction=application.

Ah, but that's because I was using 'nofragment20.0y'. I changed to default16 and it gave me an error box: * programming error: Cannot find file for FontConfig cache. continuing, cross fingers Processing `tmpfile.ly' tmpfile.ly:32:0: error: syntax error, unexpected \score \score{ tmpfile.ly:28:0: error: errors found, ignoring music expression { error: failed files: "tmpfile.ly" * So this error occurs in "fragment mode" if a \score {} block is included.

This should correspond to the fragment/nofragment option in lilypond-book code. Well, I started poking around and found a 'nofragment20.ly' template. That seems to be what I was after. It also appears simple enough to create my own templates for different sizes. So, my question about multi-line music in OOoLilyPond is answered. Also, I added a symlink to the templates etc. but this is not remembered by OOoLilyPond when I start it OpenOffice again (or perhaps it's after a new login or reboot). Please explain this in more detail, I don't understand where you put a symlink to which files. The OOoLilyPond files I put in a user's (mine) home directory. When running as root, rather than copying the scripts/templates etc. to root's home I created a symlink to the directory. When I start of OpenOffice, though, it doesn't find the templates. The 'config' box shows the path to /root/OOoLilyPond/...and so on, rather than to /home/david/OOoLilyPond/ But, /root/OOoLilyPond is a symlink to /home/david/OOoLilyPond. OOoLilyPond does not appear to be convinced that the symlink works. I have tried simply changing the template and script paths and saving them, but that doesn't work either. The next time I start OpenOffice it has reverted back to the old path. I can get around this by copying the files to the path it wants to search, but that seems a bit clumsy. -David ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

RE: ooolilypond user
Yes. The default templates that come with OOoLilyPond automatically insert everything you type into a \score block, which causes problems if you are doing more than a little snippet. Use the following as an outline to create your own template and make it your default. You will now have to include a \score { } block in your OOoLiliPond snippet, but it gives you much more flexibility. NOTE: This template is for doing church bulletins or 8-/12x11 folded booklets.

OOoLilyPond-0.5.8 : SVG Issue
Good morning! For those of you who use OOoLilyPond: I am having some problems using the OOoLilyPond extension in LibreOffice and I was just wondering if someone knew how to get this fixed. SVG output into my documents won't work, no matter what changes I make to the template, config, or the file itself. I have plenty of space for the SVG in the paragraph location and all commands are configured correctly to run outside LibreOffice just fine. I noticed no change when using/not using the preamble either. PNG insertion works fine however, it's just SVG on both GNU/Linux and Windows systems. SVG won't seem to work into the document at all. I've included some attachments to show what it looks like now. Has anyone experienced this issue when using SVG and OOoLilyPond?

Re: ANN: OOoLilyPond 0.5.0
Another thought about graphic file formats: The brand new LibreOffice supports importing PDF graphics, *but* embedded fonts are not yet recognized, which makes this feature not (yet?) usable for LilyPond-created PDFs. If this changes in the forseable future, using PDF format might solve all our problems. The developer of this LO feature has already made some changes: https://disqus.com/home/discussion/vmiklos/insert_pdf_as_image_in_libreoffice_53_01/ Maybe his comment means that in LO 5.4.0.0 this might be solved.

The sample project https://github.com/kunaldeo/Py-LibreOffice-Love-Letter-Writer/ also seems to make use of PyQt, so I thought it might be an even better idea to create a LilyPond extension for LibreOffice from scratch. This could then at least provide syntax highlighting (I must say that the visual appearance of the extension was also somewhat off-putting) and over the time one could add lightweight editing features to it (although it should not actually double Frescobaldi's functionality). In this context it would also be straightforward to add UI to configure the output (PNG/EPS, size/resolution etc.). I think that looks promising. What do you think?

German Umlaute in OOoLilyPond
In many Postings the Umlaut-Problem is treated to solve with an UTF8-Editor. But in OOoLilypond for OpenOffice, it was quite a difficult problem for me to solve but with a very easy solution. 1. Look at http://www.utf8-zeichentabelle.de/unicode-utf8-table.pl?names=- &utf8=dec&text=2 for the two UTF-8 decimal-Codes 2. Type the two Numbers with ALT+0+xxx at your Numpad. Thats it! For example: ü ALT+0195 AlT+0188 -> ü etc. (Sorry Pro's for disturbing you) Peter ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

OOoLilyPond and LilyPond 2.8
Hi, The OpenOffice.org Plugin OOoLilyPond comes with templates that only work with lilypond 2.6. I have now built some templates that work with 2.8. You can find the templates attached to this mail. Unfortunately the music fragments generated with LilyPond 2.8 always have some margin at the left side. Up to now I was not able to get rid of it. Does anybody have an idea? regards, Samuel %% Generated by lilypond-book %% Options: [fragment,alt=[image of music],ragged-right,indent=0\mm] \include "lilypond-book-preamble.ly" % % Start cut-&-pastable-section % \paper { #(define dump-extents #t) ragged-right = ##t indent = 0\mm line-width = 6.5\in } \layout { } { % ly snippet contents follows: \relative c'' { a4 b c d } % end ly snippet } %% Generated by lilypond-book %% Options: [indent=0\mm,fragment,staffsize=26,ragged-right,alt=[image of music]] \include "lilypond-book-preamble.ly" #(set-global-staff-size 26) % % Start cut-&-pastable-section % \paper { #(define dump-extents #t) indent = 0\mm ragged-right = ##t } \layout { } { % ly snippet contents follows: \relative c'' { a4 b c d } % end ly snippet } %% Generated by lilypond-book %% Options: [indent=0\mm,fragment,notime,ragged-right,alt=[image of music]] \include "lilypond-book-preamble.ly" % % Start cut-&-pastable-section % \paper { #(define dump-extents #t) indent = 0\mm ragged-right = ##t line-width = 6.5\in } \layout { \context { \Score timing = ##f } \context { \Staff \remove Time_signature_engraver } } { % ly snippet contents follows: \relative c'' { a4 b c d } % end ly snippet } %% Generated by lilypond-book %% Options: [alt=[image of music],indent=0\mm,line-width=345\pt] \include "lilypond-book-preamble.ly" % % Start cut-&-pastable-section % \paper { #(define dump-extents #t) indent = 0\mm line-width = 6.5\in } \layout { } % ly snippet contents follows: \relative c'' { a4 b c d } % end ly snippet ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: OOoLilyPond "unrecognized option"
Samuel, thanks for your suggestion. $ lilypond -b eps fragment.ly does work from cmd. I tried LilyPond 2.6.4 for cygwin when it came out some time ago, but could not get it to work (someone else also reported). 2.4.6 cygwin still works fine though, but I rarely use it now.

Re: OOoLilyPond "unrecognized option"
Hi Jay, I already answered to your personal mail address and forgot to send it also to the list. Additionally I have corrected some instructions (single quotes instead of double quotes in the path to lilypond), please ignore the first mail I sent to you directly. Jay Hamilton wrote: Samuel- This is the problem with your potentially great addition, Cygwin version(s) of lilypond didn't work for me at all- I never could get it to go while the current (is 2.8x non or not I don't really know)stable version works great as did the non-cygwin stable version 2.6x. The cygwin version 2.6.4 just works out of the box on my Windows XP for use with OOoLilyPond. Otherwise I'm not using LilyPond on Windows, so may be there are other problems with the cygwin version. I'm kinda hoping that you come up with a way to do this without Cygwin I now installed the mingw-version of LilyPond 2.8.6 and got it to work with OOoLilyPond. What you must do is the following: Install the newest OOoLilyPond 0.2.1 (this already has the templates for LilyPond 2.8 included). find the bash script and open it with a text editor: C:\OOoLilyPond\bin\OOoLilyPond (May be it is in unix format, so notepad is not a suitable editor. I used notepad plus: http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/de/site.htm) find the lines: if [ "$ext" = "eps" ]; then lilypond -b eps -f eps "${filename}.ly" 2> "${filename%.ly}.out" fi if [ "$ext" = "png" ]; then lilypond -b eps -f png -dresolution=$dpi "${filename}.ly" 2> "${filename%.ly}.out" fi Replace the two words "lilypond" with the full path of your lilypond executable. For example (line breaks are wrong in the mail): if [ "$ext" = "eps" ]; then 'C:\Program Files\LilyPond\usr\bin\lilypond' -b eps -f eps "${filename}.ly" 2> "${filename%.ly}.out" fi if [ "$ext" = "png" ]; then 'C:\Program Files\LilyPond\usr\bin\lilypond' -b eps -f png -dresolution=$dpi "${filename}.ly" 2> "${filename%.ly}.out" fi When running OOoLilyPond make sure the template path is set to the templates for version 2.8. Note that you still need cygwin. OOoLilyPond calls a bash script which needs cygwin to run. But you don't need the cygwin lilypond package. In future versions of OOoLilyPond I also try to get rid of the bash script. Then it should be completely independent of cygwin. regards, Samuel ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

You can edit the whole document in Word as you like. But when reopening the document in OpenOffice.org, you will not be able anymore to edit the lilypond code of the music snippets. If you want to write a document in collaboration with somebody else, your collaboration partner should install OpenOffice.org.
