Thanks David, for the clue.
Between you and the log file, and LSR snippet 623, it seems I chose the
worst possible example to try with the parallelogram.
parallelogram =
#(ly:make-stencil (list 'embedded-ps
"gsave
currentpoint translate
newpath
-0.3 0 moveto
-0.3 1.4 1.8 1.3 1.8 0 curveto
1.7 -1.9 -0.5 -2.5 -0.5 -2.5 curveto . . . etc
Note all the segment names after the coordinates. I missed this before.
But svg backend requires different markup, such as
customClefStencilTwo =
#(ly:make-stencil
`(path 0.1
`(moveto 0 0
curveto 0 1 0.7 2.5 1.5 1.5
lineto 1.5 -3
closepath)
'round
'round
#t)
(cons 0 1.5)
(cons -3 2))
to help conversion to svg.
I'm back in business!
Paul
