Hi. I'm new to LilyPond, but I'm familiar with the TeX-like compilation model.
I'm looking for a way to produce chord sheets of the kind used by several of the communities I play with. These are very much akin to a lead sheet -- with bar lines, time signatures, chord names above, repeat marks, etc. -- but there are no stave lines or notes. For a hand-drawn example, and an ASCII-art one, see this question on Stack Exchange: http://music.stackexchange.com/questions/5551/lead-sheets-fake-sheets-without-score I'm looking for a way to produce these which: - Is fast and convenient to write - Produces an attractive and readable end-product - Is easy to distribute by email etc. I've found a way of doing this in LilyPond by making the notes and stave invisible -- but lyrics are tied to notes, to even though I'm not displaying notes, I have to write them -- breaking the "fast and convenient to write" requirement. - Is LilyPond the right program to tackle this, or would something else be better (some LaTeX package?) - If LilyPond, can I produce lyrics without corresponding notes? -- "There is no way to peace; peace is the way"
