Qouting from above link: L> This week, Karl Hammar shared with us a rather unusual set of macros L> that somehow replace lilypond-book with some gcc makefiles. Hmm, I don't see them as unusual, I see it more like that I bend lilypond-book to the way I am used to when developing program and using latex. It boils down to . using makefiles . having something that finds out dependencies, like gcc -M . not preprocessing my latex files by lilypond-book I found out it was not really convenient preprocessing my latex files when using bibtex,makeindex and friends. So I tried using \includegraphics{lily-<horrible_number>-1.eps}, but I could not guess what number lilypond would use so I looked into the whole process. >From what I understand, lilypond-book do a, run latex on the file.lytex to find out linewidth (I've had some problems with this when lilypond-book couldn't find latex, even though I could) b, for every \lilypond* create an .ly file, say lily-1229701558.ly containing roughly: scheme code to make the output file cropped (without "margins") a \paper section with the line length found out above the rest of your lilypond code c, run lilypond on lily-1229701558.ly (and the other lily-xxx files) to produce lily-1229701558-1.eps lily-1229701558-systems.tex lily-1229701558-systems.texi lily-1229701558.eps lily-1229701558.txt d, it also makes an snippet-map.ly to remember which lily-xxx file is related to what \lilypond* directive #(define version-seen? #t) #(ly:add-file-name-alist '( ("lily-595343642.ly" . "all.lytex:128 (lily-595343642.ly)") ("lily-1065716787.ly" . "all.lytex:152 (lily-1065716787.ly)") ("lily-1045984756.ly" . "all.lytex:171 (lily-1045984756.ly)") ("lily-897287110.ly" . "all.lytex:181 (lily-897287110.ly)") ("lily-1636488540.ly" . "all.lytex:187 (lily-1636488540.ly)") ("lily-1229701558.ly" . "all.lytex:200 (lily-1229701558.ly)") ("lily-60504210.ly" . "all.lytex:233 (lily-60504210.ly)") )) e, since every lily-xxx-xx.eps file is without fonts to save space, lilypond-book reads all lily-xxx.eps files (which includes the needed fonts) and creates an file.psfonts with the grand total fonts needed to be used by dvips to include them in the end result --- I replaced step a, with an \include which has an paper block whith the right linewidth, like \include "choirbook.ly" or \include "a4paper.ly". For small snippets, I could either set it in the .ly or using e.g. \includegraphics[width=22mm]{file-1.eps}. Step b, is also solved by an \include, in current lilypond it is \include "lilypond-book-preamble.ly". Step c, is lilypond --ps -b eps file.ly # for 2.10 lilypond --ps -dbackend=eps file.ly # for 2.11 Step d, is not needed any longer. step e, is with a shrinked lilypond-book, ending with ... def main (): files = sys.argv[2:] file = sys.argv[1] fontextract.extract_fonts (file,files) if __name__ == '__main__': main () Regards /Karl _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
