Hi everybody! There is a discussion on lilypond-user with the target to allow automated lyric extenders to lilypond. One part of that is a patch to clean and extend lyric_extender.cc.
To allow automated creation of lyric extenders a helper function is needed. Putting the following code into a lilypond score does the job: #(define autoextenders (define-music-function (lyrics) (ly:music?) (music-map (lambda (event) (if (and (eq? (ly:music-property event 'name) 'LyricEvent) (not (let* ((art (ly:music-property event 'articulations)) (is-hyphen? (lambda (ev) (eq? (ly:music-property ev 'name) 'HyphenEvent)))) (find is-hyphen? art))) (not (string=? (ly:music-property event 'text) " "))) (ly:music-set-property! event 'articulations (append (ly:music-property event 'articulations) (list (make-music (quote ExtenderEvent))))) event ) event) lyrics))) Q1: Where should a definition of \autoextenders reside? scm/music-functions.scm? Q2: Obviously the definition of \autoextenders does not match the coding style used in scm/*. It does not even work if it is added to music-functions.scm. Some advice is needed ... the extending-manual is not a real help in this case.
