Well, I have only given simple examples. Suppose I want the midi file to have a different rhythm than the source, for example, as is the case in some music styles. In fact, I think my rptarg = "volta" ... \repeat \rptarg 2 method completely simple. If I submit a .ly score to the mutopia project, I am asked to explain how to create the midi output instead of the source file. Isn't it simpler, from their point of view, if I tell them to change one line, and all other changes follow? Looking at the ottava example (input/test/ottava.ly), this seems to have been done using centralCPosition, which doesn't seem to be documented in 1.6.6, though I do notice the example is from 1.6.7. If this doesn't produce the result, I don't understand the example. (By the way, searching for 'unfolded-repeat' under Regression Tests produces no result.) Is it possible to pass two music expressions to a scheme function as arguments? -- Owen [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
