There are some things I don't understand. I invoke the program from
the command line:
lilypond --pdf filename.ly
On my WInXP machine, this works fine. The program spits out some
status lines, and the
*.ps and *.pdf files appear. On my Win Vista laptop, when I type the
command the version
line appears ... and I wait. It sits there about 45 or 50 seconds,
then (finally) runs normally.
Does anybody know what's going on hre, and what I can do to fix it?
Maybe it's looking for fonts, but I've no experience with (LilyPond
on) Windows.
Here's one more: I have a section like this:
\new Staff = women
<<
\new Voice =
"sopranos" { \voiceOne << \global \sopMusic >> }
\new Lyrics = sopranos { s1 }
\new Lyrics = sopranosb { s2 }
\new Staff = men
<<
\clef bass
\new Voice =
"basses" { \voiceTwo <<\global \bassMusic >> }
\context Lyrics = sopranos \lyricsto sopranos \sopWords
\context Lyrics = sopranosb \lyricsto sopranos \sopWordsb
My question is about the "\new Lyrics" command. What's the {s1}
referring to? It uses
"sopransob" to find the right set of lyrics. When I had four verses,
I used s1, s2, s3, and s4.
got an error message saying that 3 is not a duration. True, but
what's that got to do with
anything.
I find your code somewhat confusing, don't know how that is supposed
to work.
The whole syntax for lyrics is:
\lyricsto someVoiceName \new Lyrics \lyricmode{ your ly -- rics }
Perhaps try my attached song sheet template.
