LilyPondTool question

2008-09-05 Thread Don Ravey
I'm a new LilyPond and LilyPondTool/JEdit user. LPT is surely a handy interface, but I can't seem to figure out what governs whether the LPT toolbar appears or not. At times it is there and it's very handy. Then, maybe after running LP, suddenly it disappears and I can't figure out how to r

Don - I gave up a month or so ago. I lost the digests, switched, then there was a short discussion on the user-list. It sounded like people thought it was working, so I went back to digests, but never got one. I think it's broken. Ralph On Fri, Sep 5, 2008 at 7:58 PM, Don Ravey <[EMAIL PROTECTED

Hi Han-Wen, Thanks for the reply. The example I sent was actually a quite simplified version of what I'm attempting to do; there is a real possibility that in my actual scores I will cause the 64-bit 'long long' numbers to overflow as well. As you mentioned yourself before, I think the airtight

I think the easiest approach is to simply move to 'long long' for the rational class. We could start using GUILE's rationals, but it will complicate memory management, so I think it's not worth the trouble. Anyone for a patch? On Thu, Sep 4, 2008 at 6:01 PM, Adam James Wilson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
