If Demudi ever syncs with the etch dev packages I'll upgrade to the LP testing branch too. Meanwhile I have to use 2.6.3 (which seems to work pretty well). I'm currently working on a much longer piece, about 9 pages, for a mixed quartet. It's looking good. :) Best, dp ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

In general, it's a good idea to split different questions
into separate emails, but I'll at least try to answer a few
of them.

Feel free to comment criticize as desired. Btw, I used LP version
2.6.3 from Demudi 1.3.0rc1.
I'm still finessing the pieces there. Some problems to resolve :
How do I get a hairpin crescendo to span a series of single-staff
polyphonic measures ? So far everything I've tried results in the
compiler complaining of unterminated crescendi.
Make sure that the beginning and the end of the hairpin
happens in the same Voice. If you use the {...} \\ {...}
feature, make sure to read Sect. 6.6.2 Explicitly instantiating
voices of the manual to understand what it really does.
May I guess that you have used one (or even several)
such constructs in each measure. Then, why not simply
include all the measures in the same {...} within the
{...} \\ {...} .
Are string numbers available in 2.6.3 ? I indicate them, the
compiler doesn't complain about them, but they don't display.
At least it works with my installation of version 2.6.3.
Did you try the following example from the manual?
\version 2.6.3
\relative c' {c\1 e\2 g\3 }
How can I move fingering indicators out of the way of slur and
phrase curves ?
Read the section about Common Tweaks (you may want to
read the rest of that chapter as well).
In general, how do I override default spacing of elements such as
slurs and ties ? I've briefly looked at the docs, I'm sure there's a
way, but is there a preferred method ?
Slurs and ties are a bit trickier than most other objects.
Note also that the typesetting of ties and slurs has been
improved in the development version, 2.7.x.

I had a few days to do nothing but play with LilyPond, so I dug in and had some great fun. I'm just getting re-started with the program, the learning curve has been relatively painless, and I love the output quality. Big thanks to all LP devels and users !
