well it was an approximation (due to the previously mentionned lack of vocabulary) Do you mean that your English isn't sufficient to describe the things correctly or that the issue itself is difficult to describe? ISO 2022 (as well as SHIFT-JIS and other japaneses encoding of the same type)

Strange behavior of extenders

2007-01-26 Thread Catalin Francu
Hi, Appended is an excerpt from my current work where I'm seeing some strange behavior of extenders. All three voices use \melisma and \melismaEnd, so together with the __ extenders I expected the underlines in the lyrics to span measures 2-4 and 6-8 entirely in all three voices. However, what

Hello, I began with lilypond (2.11.12) last sunday (21.01.07) and I also had some trouble with accents à la française and deutsche Umlaute. On Linux : (x)emacs was too difficult (for me) to configure utf-8 output, [xemacs it is the editor whose short cuts I know the best] but it is easy to

You could also try jEdit (http://www.jedit.org). It doesn't need configuration, and has the LilyPondTool plugin (installable from Plugin Manager) There is also an emacs emulation package for jEdit: http://www.clapper.org/software/jedit/ if you'd like to get the same shortcuts. Bert

On Linux, the easiest way to get UTF-8 output in xemacs is to simply start it from a shell where you have specified the locale using export LANG en_GB.utf-8 (or 'setenv LANG en_GB.utf-8' if you use (t)csh). Of course, for you living in France, you may want fr_FR.utf8 instead of en_GB.utf-8.

However, I'm truly puzzled by the fact that the crosses are also attached to rests because we explicitly override the stencil property of _Stem_. It would be news to me that rests also possess stems. I think they do, because there can be stemlets above rests in situations like this c[ r d]

Closer to a perfect solution: because Stem lengths varies, we should count the distance from the opposing direction: from the notehead. So for a more consistent look we should use the following (also tuned the x a bit): sp = { \override Voice.Stem #'stencil = #(lambda (grob)

Now, that's a solution I could have not figured myself, because it needs more knowledge. For example from where in the doc could I figure out that interpret-markup is part of ly:text-interface and what it does? The doc for ly:output-def-lookup is also strange: ly:output-def-lookup pap sym def
