Well, it's not the modern Scheme way but at the current point of time
LilyPond works best with Guile 1.8.

define-macro works perfectly for me, even though the Guile manual seems to
somewhat disparage its use.

Thank you, David.

I think David may have been referring to LilyPond macros; have a look
at that for example:

Thank you, David, for your quick response. I'm not sure what you mean by
"stick to macros". I thought define-syntax was the way to define a macro.
What am I missing?

syntax-case doesn't work in LilyPond since LilyPond defines \void as a
music function and the Guile 1.8 implementation of syntax-case falls
apart if 'void has a value.

You are not doing anything wrong other than expecting syntax-case to
work.  Stick to macros instead of define-syntax.  Sorry for that.

Strange error from define-syntax

[John Schlomann]

Dear Ponders & Schemers,

 

I wanted to try creating a simple Scheme macro. I've never done this before,
so I may well be going about it all wrong, but the error I get doesn't make
sense.

 

Here is a minimal non-working example:

 

\version "2.20.0"

 #(use-modules (ice-9 syncase))

 

 #(define-syntax set-default

   (syntax-rules ()

((set-default name value)

 (if (eqv? name 'UNDEF) name value)

   )))

 

 #(define some-setting 44)

 #(set-value some-setting 99)

 #(ly:message "some-setting = ~a\n" some-setting)

 

This gives the error:

Wrong number of arguments to #>

 

Huh? I also tried define-syntax-rule, which came up unbound. Any insights
into what I'm doing wrong would be welcome.

 

Thanks,

John

I shall attempt to explain (corrections welcomed).

The OP posted¹:

Soprano = \new Staff \with {
  instrumentName = "Sopran"
} <<
  \new Voice = "SI" { \voiceOne \SopranoVoiceI }
  \new Voice = "SII" { \voiceTwo \SopranoVoiceII }
>>
\addlyrics { \VerseSopranoVoiceI }²

\addlyrics nowadays works on the Staff (2.18.2 would fail here³), and
sets the lyrics with one syllable per musical moment, whichever voice
it occurs in. See my example from earlier today. Of course, that's not
what the OP wanted, because it doesn't respect ties and slurs etc in
either voice.

Your first post suggested:

Soprano = \new Staff \with {
  instrumentName = "Sopran"
} <<
  \new Voice = "SI" { \voiceOne \SopranoVoiceI }
  \new Voice = "SII" { \voiceTwo \SopranoVoiceII }
>>
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "SI" { \VerseSopranoVoiceI }

LP now tries to set a score consisting solely of Lyrics (because
\new Lyrics is actually at top-level), at which it fails.

In your last post, you've written:

Soprano = <<
  \new Staff \with {
instrumentName = "Sopran"
  } <<
\new Voice = "SI" { \voiceOne \SopranoVoiceI }
\new Voice = "SII" { \voiceTwo \SopranoVoiceII }
  >>
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto "SI" { \VerseSopranoVoiceI }
>>

Now the outer << >> brackets bundle the lyrics together with the
Staff, which contains notes, so LP has no problem setting them.

Similarly, the example that surprised you, above, has the Voices
and Lyrics bracketed together, so no problem.

¹ The marginal indentation is for clarity, but all these examples
  are top-level and would be pushed leftwards.

² I have "corrected" the OP's indentation. Originally, this line was
  indented by two spaces, making it look as if it was inside
  something, whereas it's really just the end of the \new Staff's
  definition.

³ 2.18.2 understands \new Voice { … } \addlyrics { … }

  2.20   understands \new Voice { … } \addlyrics { … }
and also \new Staff { … } \addlyrics { … }

Cheers,
David.

Yes, this warning comes twice, firstly on p267, quoted here, and later
on p292, "The \addlyrics function only works with Voice lyrics and so
cannot be used with NullVoice."

But what doesn't appear to be well explained is this recent construct:

  \new Staff <<
\new Voice { \voiceOne \soprano }
\new Voice { \voiceTwo \alto }
  >>
  \addlyrics { \textj }

An example of two different methods is attached.

I'm surprised that works. I always do it like this:
Soprano = <<
  \new Staff \with {
instrumentName = "Sopran"
  } <<
\new Voice = "SI" { \voiceOne \SopranoVoiceI }
\new Voice = "SII" { \voiceTwo \SopranoVoiceII }
  >>
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto "SI" { \VerseSopranoVoiceI }
>>

That's what's documented under the link that Joram already provided.

Re: Strange error from \new Voice

When working with addlyrics it was outside the \new staff construct like
here:

tenorVoicePart = \new Staff \with {
  instrumentName = "Tenor"
  midiInstrument = "choir aahs"
} { \clef "treble_8" \tenorVoice }
\addlyrics { \verseVoice }

Now, it is within

Soprano = \new Staff \with {
  instrumentName = "Sopran"
} <<
  \new Voice = "SI" { \voiceOne \SopranoVoiceI }
  \new Voice = "SII" { \voiceTwo \SopranoVoiceII }
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto "SI" { \VerseSopranoVoiceI }
>>
 

That should be mentioned.

This is what is there :

Soprano = \new Staff \with {
  instrumentName = "Sopran"
} <<
  \new Voice = "SI" { \voiceOne \SopranoVoiceI }
  \new Voice = "SII" { \voiceTwo \SopranoVoiceII }
  >>
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto "SI" { \VerseSopranoVoiceI }

I tested also 

Soprano = \new Staff \with {
  instrumentName = "Sopran"
} <<
  \new Voice = "SI" { \voiceOne \SopranoVoiceI }
  \new Voice = "SII" { \voiceTwo \SopranoVoiceII }
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto "SI" { \VerseSopranoVoiceI }
>>

And this worked! This would be worth mentioning in the manual!

Strange error from \new Voice

wrongly applied. When eleminating the line "  \new Voice = "SII" {

The backtrace usually at least is good for the function names even
without debug information.

For running gdb do:

For example: gdb lilypond-git/build/out/bin/lilypond
You will get some infos about gdb returned, finally it ends with

Then type:

That's not unusual for such garbage collection errors: triggering them
requires a garbage collection occuring at an inopportune point of time
and the time depends on how much memory is being temporarily used. With
verbose output, more memory is churned through because of the storage
the formatting of the verbose output requires, and thus garbage
collection happens at different points of time than without verbose
output.

That makes these kind of error annoyingly hard to track down: they
vanish and reappear with completely unrelated changes in usage and the
actual error message is triggered at a time far from the problem.

That's not unusual for such garbage collection errors: triggering them
requires a garbage collection occuring at an inopportune point of time
and the time depends on how much memory is being temporarily used.  With
verbose output, more memory is churned through because of the storage

64bit Linux, Guile 1.8. That is a combination that really should work.
Any chance to be running this under gdb and/or create a backtrace from a
core dump?

Basically it would be nice to figure out what kind of code this is
happening in in order to figure out what kind of memory became collected
prematurely. The actual bug unfortunately is not really connected with
the code executed at this time: it triggers an indeterminate time before
that and the responsible code is code that someone forgot to write.

But at least knowing what kind of data structure might be affected would
be a kind of clue how to narrow done the missing code.

Well, I don't have any experience with gdb, so I wouldn't know what to do. The 
strange thing seems to be that, if the score is engraved using Frescobaldi's 
verbose output ( which has a separate engrave button ), the error doesn't 
happen.

This is an error in the internals of the memory organization of
LilyPond.  Which platform are you using this on, and which version of
Guile has been compiled into it?

Basically the output of

ldd `which lilypond`

should be sufficient for answering this question if you have no clue
what I am talking about.

Strange error with no traceable cause.

[crimsonsunrise]

I'm working on a large score using 2.21.0, parts all separated into different 
files and such, suddenly, after adding a bar for the 3rd clarinet, this shows 
up:

Parsing...

Interpreting music...[8][16]ERROR: In procedure ly:trampoline:

ERROR: Wrong type argument in position 3 (expecting Translator): #

I have no idea why this is happening. All the other parts add fine but, as soon 
as the bar is added for that particular instrument, the error shows up.

However, if you engrave with verbose output on Frescobaldi enabled...the error 
doesn't show up. Disable that and do normal engraving...Same error.

I just glanced it over and didn't see any changes in the code.  Doing it 
again now that I know what to look for, I do indeed spot the change. 
Guess that's what I get for being in a rush the first time.

timeless = \with { }

\new StaffGroup { \new Staff \timeless { c' } }

timeless = { g' }

\new StaffGroup { \new Staff \timeless { c' } }

It was impossible to know just where the \new Staff ended unless you
knew the exact value and type of \timeless.

And \timeless may be a scheme function call rather than a fixed value.

Editors don't have such knowledge, and other utilities don't have that
knowledge.  And LilyPond only has such knowledge in certain situations.
And since timeless may get reassigned, this knowledge may be temporary.

LilyPond does not support Python 3 yet.  Python 3 syntax for octal
numbers is 0o777 instead of 0777.  I would be surprised if this were the
only problem, though, so you better try to change the scripts to use
some Python 2 interpreter.

Strange error(?) message when invoking lilypond-book

[Speldosa]

I'm running OS X 10.11 and LilyPond version 2.18.2-1. I'm trying to invoke
lilypond-book via terminal by typing the following (I've tried getting the
path option to work, but I've given up after a gazillion tries):

/Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/lilypond-book
Test.lytex

What I'm served with after running this command is the following:

File "/Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/lilypond-book",
line 590
os.mkdir (global_options.output_dir, 0777)
^
SyntaxError: invalid token

Am I even supposed to see this? Is this a valid error message (in that case,
it's not making a lot of sense)? I've been able to locate the origin in the
source code, but that doesn't help me very much.

Anybody got any ideas?

Thanks! Running the same terminal code with "python2" at the beginning did
the trick!

I rename the .ly file not using any utf-8 code and it complies fine.2..  I 
change the first utf-8 character  "禱" to another "主" and the file complies fine

Well I can't see any evidence that LP compiled anything: nothing of
any substance occurs before the "Success" line.

So it looks as if your filenames are defeating either the operating
system or the application that you're using. It might be worth using
filenames containing only ASCII characters to see if the problem
goes away. Using Unicode *within* the source should be OK: I get some
likely-looking glyphs when I compile your source in 2.18.2.

Cheers,
David.

AFAICT the newer versions of frescobaldi, eg 2.18.1 in Debian's
stretch, use python3, and that should handle UTF8 natively. The older
version in Debian's stable (jessie) is 2.0.13 which uses python2, and
so UTF has to be handled with extra code (easy, but necessary).
But it's odd that particular characters should troublesome but not
others.

LilyPond itself probably cares little about the filename it's given
because all it has to do with it is reflect it on the console.
I've tested the jessie version (2.18.2) with filenames consisting
of SPACE, NBSP, strings like ¶‱™ ⇈☂✂♠♫ (which has a NBSP in the
middle) and also your title and poet thus:

lilypond 雨打芭蕉xxx禱願
lilypond 禱願xxx雨打芭蕉

I don't know what platform you're running this on. If it's MS, it
could be their use of UTF16 that's causing a problem.

Attached are the files for a run based on your troublesome character
(if I captured the correct one):

禱   source file
lilyerr  console output
lilyout  output from displayLilyMusic
禱.pdf   output file

Because my xterms have limited fonts available, there's also a
screenshot of these files altogether in emacs.

Cheers,
David.

From your description it seems to be a frescobaldi problem.

What happens if you try to compile the LP source on the cmdline ?

FWIW I can compile all 3 files you attached to your last email on
my Linux system using the current stable frescobaldi and LP 2.19.30

Hello Bernhard,

it helps a lot if you post compilable examples (that is, complete .ly 
files), and best in an attachment so mailing systems can’t mess up anything.
However: the ( for the slur must come before the bar check | since it is 
a so called post-event belonging to the previous note.

Since you are using Frescobaldi, if you click on the error message in 
the error log panel your text cursor will jump to the exact point where 
lilypond found the error.

strange error after reducing music rhythm by an half

[Federico Bruni]

Hi

while transcribing a piece of music, I realized that it may work better 
if written with a different rhythm, so I used the Frescobaldi option 
which reduces the rhythms by an half. Then I removed all the bar checks.


But I cannot compile this modified file and I don't have a clue of the 
reason why. Below you find the verbose output and the error message. Is 
it enough to figure out what the error can be?


It's copyright music so I cannot post it here. If someone wants to see 
the file I'll send it privately.


Thanks in advance,
Federico

It looks as if lilypond finds a call for a seventh string on your

Or you removed some character while removing the bar checks?

I had a similar error message long time ago, and it took me about half

out that I did some guitar trickery being tested on a four-string-bass

Yes, exactly: if the note has no duration or it's not included inside 
, Fresco converts it: for example g\4 was turned into g\8

I'll tell Wilbert to take \ into account

Not sure what that's about -- with 2.12.2, running your line as a 
minimal example produces warnings that the crescendi are too short, but 
that's all.


Using visible notes, not spacer notes, produces  error-free output here:

Re: strange error -beam and tremolo

[Trevor Daniels]

Seems to work ok in the latest development version, 2.11.52, so
I guess you're using an earlier version.  The development
version is now at least as stable as 2.10, so it might be worth
upgrading, although you will need to run convert-ly on your files.

Re: strange error when creating context

[Werner LEMBERG]

 Now the strange warning comes, saying it can't create the
 CHordMarks context.

This comes from the MIDI processing (and admittedly, there is no
indication for that in the warning message).  You can ignore it
safely.

Lilypond and CPU cost, system resource exhaust... (was: Strange error causes Lilypond refus...)

[hhpmusic]

Hi,
  I restarted my comuter and then add a virtual RAM to a volume o my hard disk, 
settg the size varying from 1GB to 2GB. Then the score can be compile, but very 
slow, with some errors because of my music codes. But I'm wondering why 
Lilypond takes so many CPU usage and need such a large memory to work. What 
does the error message in the previous email mean?Could someone tell me how 
Lilypond works and why it takes off so many system resources? I ever removed my 
pagfile.sys to let my hard disk larger. Other programs can work fine, but LP 
can't :-)
  But whatever, I'll thank you all for working hard on this software. I'm 
deciding whether I must go to New England Comservatory in USA to study 
composition, because the deans of my school refused me from learning this when 
I entered it as their only blind in 1999. Lilypond is the only tool for me to 
write music. It really helped me a lot!

SINCERELY

Re: strange error causes Lilypond refuse to compile

[Graham Percival]

(for your other email)
I would attempt to isolate and fix these problems before playing
with virtual memory.


I must admit that the error message looks like a problem with
memory allocation, but I think the solution to this lies in either
your tweaks, or in a bug with 2.11.49.  Unfortunately, tracking
down the cause will likely not be easy.

I took a quick look at your files, and I couldn't see anything
obviously wrong -- you've done a good job of separating your
tweaks from your music definition.  I can think of a few
possibilities:
- lilypond has trouble with your tweaks (I'm testing
  MarkLine right now, but commenting that out doesn't stop the
  problems)
- lilypond has trouble dealing with large paper sizes.  (nope, not
  this; commenting out the paper line doesn't fix it)
- maybe it's the number of StaffGroup nestings?  What happens if
  you comment out a bunch of lines in your -score file and have
everything inside a single GrandStaff or StaffGroup?
- maybe one or your tweaks happens to require a lot of CPU power
  to calculate?  What if you remove all your tweaks?  (ie in your
defs, change all the definitions to be
  blah = {
%
%
%
}

- if you try compiling your score with certain instruments removed
  (ie comment out all the winds, then percussion, then strings,
etc), does the problem go away?


Sorry I can't help more; I've tried a few things without any
change, but I can't spend more time on it.

I'm 95% certain that you missed a } or  somewhere, but I don't
have the time to analyze your file to see where it is.

Re: strange error

[Ledocq-Boccart]

Hi,

Just a suggestion...
If not yet the case, using jedit as code editor could maybe make it 
easier for checking missing { or } (pairs of linked brackets are 
highlighted when mouse cursor is positionned just after the character).

http://www.jedit.org
Also check separately each instrument score lines using %  in front of 
line code;

or for several lines %{ line code to isolate
line code to isolate
...
line code to isolate
%}

Have a look in manual under

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/user/lilypond-big-page#Working-on-text-files

success!

Charlie

RE: strange error

[Trevor Daniels]

Hi Haipeng

Line 20 - missing  before Andante.  Should be:
  toptextA = \markup { \bold \italic Andante }
This is the mistake which causes the error in init.ly.

There are a couple of other minor errors:

Line 39 - incorrect string ae\!.  Maybe should be:
\repeat tremolo 16 { f\ ees } \repeat tremolo 4 { f ees } \times 4/6
{ f16 ees f ees f aes\! } |

Line 72 definition should be bassoons, not bassoon.

The file then compiles, but there are still several warnings about bar
checks and unterminated crescendos, which you can probably fix easily
yourself.

Never mind; it was in a context redefinition (to get midi from voice
contexts) that I don't need right now.
