Re: New Syntax?

[Will Oram]

I check the changelog obsessively with each new version -- between .28 
and .30, I couldn't identify any changes that affected me. I wasn't 
aware of convert-ly -s -- very useful; thank you. From the list, only 
\center applies to me...I hope.

The problem still remains, however. It appears others are having 
similar breakdowns with convert-ly. I installed .30 on another Mac, and 
it choked just the same on the same file. Something is indeed up.

I just tried your file here and I can't repeat your error.
To find out what convert-ly is trying to do, just run
convert-ly -s
You can also take a look at the ChangeLog file.

I just installed .30 on my OS X machine. lilypond now pukes when I 
input my old score code. convert-ly also can't seem to handle the 
conversion between .28 and .30, because it crashes on most files. The 
only change it seems to have made successfully was changing 'center' 
to 'center-align'. Everything else, it's failed:
convert-ly (GNU LilyPond) 2.1.30

The above corresponds to the .ly file below:
\version "2.1.28"
spacing = \notes {
    \partial 4*1 s4 | s1 | s | s | s | s | s | s | \break
    s | s | s | s | s | s | s | s | s | \break

}
barlines = \notes {
    \override Score.MetronomeMark   #'transparent = ##t
    \set Score.skipBars =             ##t
    \override Score.TupletBracket   #'bracket-visibility = ##f
    \override Score.TextScript      #'font-magnification = #1.25
    \override TextScript             #'extra-offset = #'(5 . 0)
        \time 2/2
    \key csharp \minor
}
What doesn't lilypond .30 like in the above? Or, in general, what 
syntax has been changed in the new version? I'm going to have to fix 
the differences manually.
