Load .scm file from within define-void-function

2015-03-02 Thread Urs Liska
I have written a function that abstracts the loading of include files (by performing different path checks, offering a dot-notation interface and ensuring that files are included only once). The actual loading is done through ly:parser-include-string using an "\include" statement. Now I'd like

String Concatenation, and Use of Unicode characters

Hi Michael, for your second issue, this might be helpful: \concat { "Alto Sax in E" \fontsize #-5 \raise #0.9 \musicglyph #"accidentals.flat" } Could you provide your source file and also the include files as a download or attachment? I tried to copy-paste from your post, but some signs got mess

Hi! My goal is to engrave a small piece that contains: - chord - melody - lyrics I would like to take advantage of the \parallelMusic macro, if that is possible. The best results I was able to achieve were with this: (although I bet there are more elegant ways) \version "2.14.2" \paral

Hi Matej, the message occurs because the syllables don't have a length like the notes in the two upper voices. Using \lyricmode { Cee2 Eee4 Gee4 } | will supress the message, even if it's not necessary because of the "\lyricsto" assignment. I'm afraid there is no way to get rid of the "\l
