Hey, don't be rude! I need the same thing :) I think LP is useful because I don't *always* want that, but just as *one* of the outputs. For example, I produced a sheet with melody, harmony, bassline, chords and lyrics. For a single staff, it fits 2 A4, so it's nice and short. With all staffs it needs 6 pages... So, I was thinking I'd have a bass/chords/lyrics version (2 pages) and a drum/chords/lyrics version (2 pages) and a melody/chords/lyrics version (2 pages) and maybe (why not) a blank/chords/lyrics. The latter would be nice to have to let me take notes with pencil over the printed pages, for fixing interesting things I may find while playing. Could also have a blank piano staff for that. Now, the problem with the above is that I couldn't handle to make the documetned "Devnull" approach work to hide the meoldy but still have lyrics aligned. Does anyone have an example of that ? The .ly file with all staffs (forgive me, drums are just a stub): http://foo.keybit.net/~strk/tmp/amadomio.ly --strk; _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
