Hi folks!
I'm using 2.5.29 (and still a bit new to it I must admit). I've been
editing this .ly file and compiling it just fine when all of a sudden,
wishing to print a copy, I noticed my /paper was wrong -- I need "letter"
instead of A4. Now all along, the compile message would say:
Parsing...
warning: Must use #(set-paper-size .. ) within \paper { ... }
Interpreting music... [8][16][24][32][40][48][49]
but it would finish and be fine.
So, looking through my file I noticed I had no \paper, but my
#(set-paper-size) was withing \layout (leftover from version 2.2.6 and not
changed on convert-ly) So I moved that to the top of the file within a
\paper block. The first time I compiled that, it did just fine, but did
not change the paper size.
Then I changed something else (and I can't seem to restore it with "undo"
in xemacs) and it now gives me:
Gloria4Part.ly:20:10: error: syntax error, unexpected DIGIT
\version "
2.5.29"
error: failed files: "Gloria4Part.ly"
I don't get this -- I have several other files with the same syntax (here
is a snippet to look at -- not complete to compile):
\header {
filename = "Gloria4Part.ly"
enteredby = "Gordon Gilbert"
composer = "Gordon Gilbert 1994, 2004"
poet = "Missa Brevis"
date="2004"
title = "Gloria In Excelsis"
subtitle = "Glory to God in the highest"
metre = ""
meter = \metre
copyright = "Gordon Gilbert"
style = "Missa Brevis"
mutopiacomposer = \composer
mutopiapoet=\poet
maintainer = "Gordon Gilbert"
maintainerEmail = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
lastupdated = "2005/September/5
}
\version "2.5.29"
\paper{
#(set-paper-size "letter")
}
global= {
\time 4/4 \key c \major
There's something obvious here to everyone except me -- what is wrong with
my \version? Or anything else here for that matter? What am I missing?
Thanks guys,
Fr. Gordon Gilbert+
