Re: hebrew lyrics lilypond!!
It would actually help if you provided more complete examples of
what you tried to do. If the example you show below is what you
typed in the lyrics section, I fully understand why nothing works.
First of all, you have to realize that the syllables are separated by
blanks.
If you want to include a space or any special character such as curly
braces in a syllable you have to add double quotes around the full
syllable. Thus, you probably want
mylyricsline = \lyrics{ \\R{\\hebalef} ... }
which should result in a \hbox{\R{\hebalef}} command in the generated
TeX file.

It is doubled.
\\R { \\hebalef }
There is an error in the log file which complains about undefined
control sequence.
What I need is someone else on the list to who could try this out as
well.
I am getting the feeling that either I am just consistantly doing
something wrong or there is a bug in lilypond-book or ???

Here you have a problem: the backslash did not get through.
Double it!

Re: hebrew lyrics lilypond!!
Ok lets try to unconfuse me.
1.\\HeblatexRedefineL honestly this is from the hebrew latex but I am
not sure what it means, does the L at the end stand for left?? if so
maybe I should us an R??
2. \\R or \\L I see how you used the which I didn't do
3. \\sethebrew or \\unsethebrew - can this be used in the lilyfile?? I
am generally confused whether to use this at all or maybe I need it in
the wrapper???
4. then there is the font issue do I need to define the font if I am
using //hebalef??
--
Now I have some idea of what to do next.
1. the \\R with the quotes according to mats.
2. If that doesn't work \\HeblatexRedefineL with the quotes according to
mats.
I will run these tests and include the outputs and the files so that
things will I hope be clearer.
Thanks
Aaron
am trying the following
1.
}
text = \context Lyrics \lyrics { \\HeblatexRedefineL { \\hebalef
\\hebgimel \\hebalef \\hebalef }
}

These questions have nothing to do with Lilypond, please post to
the ivrtex (or whatever it was called) list!

This would mean that the first syllable of the lyrics is \HeblatexRedefine,
then you have a curly brace that does nothing. You have to switch manually
to Hebrew for each single syllable, see my previous posts!

Re: hebrew lyrics lilypond!!
How did you specify it in the .ly file? Did you write \habalef, \\habalef, \habalef or \\habalef? Did you check what it says in the Lilypond generated lily-xxx.tex file (make sure you are looking in the correct one, lilypond-book generates a new random name every time you make any change in the .ly file). /Mats Aaron wrote: Hi all, I found my myserious titles: They are in fact lyrics lilypond puts lyrics above the staff I forgot. And here is what they are \hebalef it says is zulbgut in hebrew or is it \hebgimel?? In other words latex reads the ascii \hebalef and replaces each letter with a hebrew one. Sorry if I confused myself and everyone about the titles... Now it definetly means that it isn't reading \hebalef as a command to print a hebrew alef, certainly it just skips any typing I do in hebrew!!! Must I set the keyboard encoding somewhere???

Re: hebrew lyrics lilypond!!
Hi again,
The tex file showed
-clip--
\lyitem{ -1.8893 }{ 43.7506 }{\magfontMOPIomMMBo\hbox{hebalef}}%
\lyitem{-12.0893 }{ 46.5416 }{\embeddedps{ 0.3302 1.6512 0.1000
0.1000 0.2000 draw_round_box}}%
\lyitem{-12.5893 }{ 46.5416 }{\magfontOJJAComMMBo\char33 }%
\lyitem{ -9.0893 }{ 35.8868 }{\lyvrule{ -0.0650 }{ 0.1300 }{ 3.7250
}{ 0. }}%
\lyitem{ -1.8893 }{ 28.1521 }{\magfontMOPIomMMBo\hbox{here are the
hebrew letters but evolution won't print them}}%
clip--
It took it from newmyscore.ly and just substituted hebrew for each
english letter
