The thing is that LilyPond uses the file lookup mechanism used in teTeX (the so-called kpathsea library) to be certain to find the same files as the TeX related programs. If the distribution you mention uses the same library, then it might be fairly easy, otherwise it can get really messy.

Re: Minimum measure size

2005-03-03 Thread Mats Bengtsson
The default spacing in LilyPond has been carefully designed by the implementors to provide a nice layout. If you want a more spacious layout, maybe you should increase the staff size one or two steps. If a particular line of music gets too compressed, it may help to add a manual line break,

I couldn't repeat your problem. For example, in the following example, both the brace and the name of the GrandStaff disappear even when there's a single stave left in the GrandStaff, as well as when they all are empty. At least that's what happens when I use version 2.4.4. \version 2.4.0 \score{

Hi Matt, Thanks for your answer and I will try to play with these settings. If you try to take a look at this bar: http://djernaes.dk/misc/holes.pdf You can see that this is pretty compressed and for small kids learning to play it's too compressed. Besides there seem to be quite a difference

It seems both of the problems (TeTeX 3 upgrade fails to complete, lilypond fails to run) are due to some, ahem, suboptimal packaging I did in the lilypond package. To get the TeTeX upgrade to complete: - run fink update tetex. If it fails... - Open a new shell window and run it again. - This is
