cygwin build

2004-05-26 Thread Scott Webber
Does anyone have a fairly recent build for cygwin? I'm using something horribly old and it doesn't work with a lot of the ly files I've received (such as the marching band score that Peter posted). If so, where can I get it? I'm not really feeling upto getting the build environment going right n

Flat beams

2004-05-26 Thread Jim Sabatke
Bagpipers are used to reading music with flat beams. The stems should be long, enough to not interfere with the clutter of grace notes. I've done a lot of web research on beams, and various kinds of "concaveness" seem to be something what I'm looking for. I'm not sure what value(s) to set, and

I'm writing a converter for BMW (a windows bagpipe music program) to Lilypond conversion program. There are thousands of BMW files on the web, so it will be useful. Pipers are very picky about how their music is printed, hence this and other questions I will be asking. QUESTION: How do I for

As you may have noticed, the attachments are stripped on the mailing list (due to the flood of virus emails). Notice that the property names are case sensitive. If you replace the first 'S' in the property name by 's', everything should work as you expect. The lyrics handling was one of the main im

The vertical extent of each Staff is determined by three different properties, minimumVerticalExtent, extraVerticalExtent and verticalExtent. No matter how you set the last two properties, the size will never be below the value specified in minimumVerticalExtent. By default, minimumVerticalExtent i
