Re: Tilde causes error message: unrecognized string, not in text script or \lyricmode

It also compiles without error for me, Windows.  Perhaps it's not a space 
but a UTF-encoded character in the original code?

Eyolf,

Your snippet compiles without error message for me. I am using Lilypond
under Windows.
I notice that a space separates the two e from their ~. The space is not
between the two b and theirs.
Perhaps this is the source of the error message for you.

If I try to run the following (either directly or as part of a score):

\relative c' {
\key e \minor
\time 4/4

r4 r8 e8 e fis g4 fis fis8 fis fis e dis e ~ e4 r8
e8 e fis g4 a a8 a a g a b~ b4 r8
b b b b4 c c8 c c b a b~ b4 r8
b8 b a g4  fis fis8 fis fis e dis e ~ e4 r8 }

I get the error message: unrecognized string, not in text script or
\lyricmode at the tildes in the first and last line. The es after the
tildes do not get written out. The two b~ work as expected, though, even
though everything but the pitches is the same as in the first line.
If I remove the tildes, everything works - except that I don't get the ties.

I'm running v. 2.18.2 under Arch Linux.

I suspect that either you did not copypaste this piece of source into
your mail but rather retyped it, or that your mail reader sanitizes
material.

As written, this will work without problems.  However, the symptoms
sound like you might have entered a character like ̃, namely an actual
accent character combining with a previous character.  That theory gains
weight by your mail posting actually showing blank characters in the
lines you indicated.  So I suspect you had a blank there with a
following combining circumflex accent, but your mail software or your
copypaste buffer or whatever else sanitized this into a blank with a
normal ASCII tilde afterwards.

In the form it is not, it is valid LilyPond code.

Which version do you use?

I forgot to add that: no, there is no difference whether there is a 
space there or not.


I also tested the snippet on lilybin.com, both with the latest stable 
(which is the same as I am running) and the latest devel, with the same 
result.

Eyolf,

Your snippet compiles perfectly for me on Ubuntu using LilyPond 2.18.2, so it 
probably is something with your installation? Sorry I can't help more than 
that.

Abraham
