thanks for your advise. I installed JRE and got LilypondTool running after
fiddling with a lot of error messages like

Why? That would install dependencies like the Console, ErrorList,

That's true. Then you have to download and install separately the two

Don't stick with notepad! Even though it's not a graphical input, you should
use Lily4Jedit (or some similar editor that has Lilypond compatibility mode).

Hi all,
To recap part I of the etf2ly saga
I converted etf2ly and got errors. A 348.ly file was generated.
with eyes closed, I didn't open the resulting lily file to check for
errors, I ran lilypond on the 348.ly and got the following errors.

your
sources, and say
patch etf2ly.patch
...and make install, or cd to where etf2ly is installed and to
patch -p1 etf2ly etf2ly.patch
...and that should be taken care of. Or not; please tell me how you
fare! (I've only tried this with a single piece.)
Empty measures are still
HI are you working on patching etf2ly??
Is there a reason that the header is on the bottom??
My druthers would be that etf2ly should be templateable.
I already know the format I want for my final file it would be nice to
be able to specify a template to use to dump the converted etf2ly output
I tried patching etf2ly and got the following:

There is no header in the lilypond files produced with etf2ly. There
is a score block
All I'm trying to do is solve some issues that I have, in order to see
if I can use etf2ly for any serious work at all.
yeah there is only however one other show in town that is musicxml2ly.

I recently tried etf2ly on a Finale ETF file I got from our conductor,

the original), they're also definitely wrong. More precisely, notes
in a minor key appear two positions above the place where they should.

Everything is not great, however.
Whole measure rests disappear (when a stave is silent for a complete
measure). This confuses the timing, giving errors in the pitches when
there's a key change.

Hi all,
What I am doing is not starting from scratch but converting etf2ly and
searching and replacing the wrong notes with the right one.
What would be the easiest is a script that transposes the key.
ie. you input the new key and it automatically searches and replaces.
Does such a script exist
Hi,
What I seem to get is that the conversion want to make all my files into
c major.
The rythem translates perfectly. But the notes not.
I can give an example if anyone thinks it worth the time to play with
etf2ly.
In the mean time I convert and use search and replace to fix the note
names
