If you haven't added this to LSR already, could you do so? You can add
the script (and usage instructions) as a comment to the snippet.

Dear Benjamin and Nick,
This was just to let you know that I've got fixing the Lilypond SVG
output down to three "replace" operations in EMacs.
Editing the SVG file you replace:
1: all occurrences of "feta-alphabet20" with "Emmentaler"
2: all occurrences of "font-family:Century" with "font-family:Century
Schoolbook L
3: all occurrences of "font-family:L" with "font-family:Century
Schoolbook L"
The only output which remains incorrect is italic font type, which I
haven't found any way of fixing - the SVG file seems to be correct,
the font file is there, as far as I can see, but it always shows as
Roman.
It would be perfectly feasible (I suppose) just to make a parser
which was triggered by the writing of the SVG file by Lilypond which
corrected these mistakes.
I'm not fluent enough in any language to write this, but maybe one of
you is?
Hi Vivian,
Thanks for the info! I wrote the following file to be used with the
sed tool:
s/feta-alphabet[0-9]+/Emmentaler/g
s/font-family:Century/font-family:Century Schoolbook L/g
s/font-family:L/font-family:Century Schoolbook L/g
Call this with "sed -Ef lilyfix.sed lilyfile.svg > lilyfile_fixed.svg".
I did have to make one change, which was to generalize the expression
for feta-alphabet to work with other sizes. This sed script has to be
run manually from the command line after each time you call lilypond;
I found that to be a pain, so I wrote a shell script called lilysvg,
which looks mostly like this (full paths are omitted for brevity):
#!/bin/sh
.../lilypond -bsvg -o /tmp/lilysvg $1.ly && sed -Ef .../fix.sed
/tmp/lilysvg.svg > $1.svg
Call it with "lilysvg lilyfile", being sure to leave off the ".ly" of
the filename.
Thanks again for the information on this! I've now used LilyPond to
create SVG files of some music snippets for Wikipedia—you can see a
small gallery at
