Dear all, I definitely have problems with Scheme and LilyPond interpretation. I now have the Scheme standard open as well. I tried to simplify the initial job by first creating a function with one string argument returning either a string or a markup. Does not work. I tried hundreds of alternatives, with musoc-function and withj markup-command, with a define and define-scheme-funciton, to no avail. Why is the following not working? %%% BEGIN SNIPPET \version "2.16.0" #(define-markup-command (tonicEN props layout tonic) ( string? ) ( (cond ( (string=? tonic '"cis") ("C sharp") ) ( (string=? tonic '"dis") ("D sharp") ) ) ) ) \header { composer = "myself" title = \tonicEN "cis" } \score { \relative c' { a bes cis deses e fisis ges } \layout {} } %%% END SNIPPET _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
