I'm experimenting with defining and using custom contexts. I have not succeeded in applying the example at:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/defining-new-contexts to my tiny example below attempting the creation of a custom ChordNames context. The '\new XChords' line throws a warning: GNU LilyPond 2.18.2 Processing `foo.ly' Parsing... Interpreting music... Preprocessing graphical objects... Interpreting music... warning: cannot find or create new `XChords' Preprocessing graphical objects... Finding the ideal number of pages... Fitting music on 1 page... Drawing systems... Layout output to `foo.ps'... Converting to `./foo.pdf'... Success: compilation successfully completed How can I modify the second score's source to have the scores engrave the same in the output file? Thank you!
