I had a similar problem when I upgraded to 2.4 lilypond under cygwin. Turned out that there was an environment variable problem. I added this to my .bashrc file: export TEXMF='{/usr/share/lilypond/2.4.2,/usr/share/texmf}' and lilypond was happy. Interestingly, lilypond worked just fine when I r

partcombine - how to use it?

I'd like to use partcombine to eliminate the two rests on each staff (vocal music), but I'm not getting it. This .ly file behaves the same with and without the \partcombine lines. Suggestions? Lilypond 2.4.2 under cygwin. - James \layout { linewidth = 455.244096\pt } \version "2.4.0" \h

Here's what I've got for one of our choir songs. I'm no Lilypond expert, but it's got multiple lyrics between the treble and bass clefs, adjusted spacing (at least that's what I think the minimumVerticalExtent bit does). Don't know what a "centered refrain" is - I'm pretty new to choir music. Som

combining SATB rests

2004-11-10 Thread James Moore
I threw together this perl script to help with creating a part that has only rests. It's not pretty, but it does most of the work of turning notes into skips and leaving rests. It's meant to be an aid for a human cutting and pasting; it makes no attempt to figure out which parts of the file are n

Right way to handle repeats like this?

2004-11-05 Thread James Moore
What's the right way to designate repeats for a piece that has: Chorus Chorus (written at end of chorus: "last X to Coda") Verse 1 Verse 2 (written at end of verse: "D.C. al Coda" Chorus Coda The chorus and verse repeats seem simple, but I have no idea how to designate the last chorus/coda bit.

Adding text above the time signature and at the end of a part

2004-11-05 Thread James Moore
Two questions: 1. How do you add text above the time signature (or somewhere close)? I've seen the a4^"This is text" syntax, but I'd like to add text before the first note. (The music I'm looking at has things like "Moderately slow", "slow gospel," "not too slowly" written there.) 2. How do y
