It turns out that Bernie's problems appear since he has a too old version
of ghostscript installed (to verify what version you have, run the
command 'gs --version'). Clearly, GNU Ghostscript version 7.07 is too old.
Version 8.15 should hopefully be new enough, but install the newest you can
find
You can find the definition of the \afterGrace function in
ly/music-functions.ly. If you know your LilyPond and Scheme,
it shouldn't be hard to make a version for acciaccaturas.

Hey, all!
Just wanted to take an informal survey...
How many 'Ponders put their dynamics directly in the note code, e.g.,
notes = { a\pp b }
and why?
How many 'Ponders use a separate dynamics variable, e.g.,
notes = { a b }
dynamics = { \pp }
\notes \dynamics
and why?
How many
Hello Tomas and users,
Take a look at this two examples that I think will further clarify Lilypond
capabilities in handling chords, slurs and different voices.
% This first situation is very common in songbooks:
\new Staff \relative c' { e c 2^( ~ f c 2) ^( ~ e c 1) }
\layout {
As a matter of practice, I put the dynamics directly in the note code,
even though my philosophical preference is to separate notes from
interpretation as much as possible. I'm not sure why--maybe to keep
down the number of independent music parts, I guess.
In any case, I'm happy to be shown
Thanks,
As fo me contributing, my knowledge and confidence level are still too low
(2 weeks). but when I do learn it better I would be glad to help out, but
only at the end-user level. I think the manual is excellent and much better
than most manuals, great job! I was able to accomplish my
I try to keep as much as possible OUT of the notes list, I wish everything
could be targeted to the notes by some external targeting fashion instead of
embedding. It keeps my songs more maintainable, I think, and easier to
re-use my templates for new songs. I'm a newer user but I think LilyPond

Is this change now available in any of the post 2.8.0 releases?

Hello, Rick:

Me, too! I've been thinking of using the new \parallelMusic feature
as a replacement mechanism, e.g.,

Hello,
I'm learning to use LilyPond and as a pianist I use template introduced
in section 3.2.4 of the User Manual. A piece I'm now trying to copy
begins with note grace in right hand. Section 6.4.7 says: A score that
starts with a \grace section needs an explicit \new Voice declaration,

Well, I got repeated time signature. Since I'm unable to strip my

Thanks John,
I did figure out how to change paper.scm and made that change long ago, in
order to make Concert an available form (also Concert 9x12 is a valid form
in my WindowsXP installation for printer forms).
However the PDF header is still not correct, Adobe Reader still does not
think it

Hello, all --
The default spacing of (i.e., padding before) notes which begin a
measure and which have an accidental is, to my eye, wonderful -- but
only as long as the measure begins a system, or the note is preceded
by something special (e.g., time signature, key
Can LilyPond engrave an old-style F clef, such as the one in this
Wikipedia article?

It doesn't look like it from 7.7.4 in the manual, but I thought I
might be missing something.

I think I've almost answered my own question:
Is there any easy way to tweak the spacing of *just* the notes
which begin a measure and have an accidental on them
