Take a look at the example file input/regression/fingering.ly
if you use a recent development version of Lilypond or 
input/test/script-horizontal.ly if you use the stable 1.4.x
series. The support for fingerings next to the notes has been
improved in 1.5.x compared to 1.4.x.

problem getting MIDI output from lilypond

2002-04-29 Thread Colin Cotter

Hi,
I'm a new convert to lilypond and have been very pleased with the output 
it produces as well as the ease of input. I have a question about 
generating MIDI output.
I have included the following in my .ly file
\midi {
\tempo 4=100
}
and have typed 
lilypond -m trousers.ly
(where I have chosen -m to suppress the .tex output)
but I get no messages talking about MIDI and no .midi files are created.
Have I typed something wrong, or do I need additional software to use MIDI 
with lilypond?
Thanks in advance,
Colin Cotter

Did you write the \midi {...} section within the \score{...}
declaration? Otherwise Lilypond will not be able to understand
what should be included in the MIDI file. So, your file should
contain something like:

\score{
  ...
  \midi{
...
  }
}

i tried to look on apt-get but i got this:

Building Dependency Tree... Done
E: The package lilypond needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive
for it.

i'm totally clueless again.

edit /etc/apt/sources.list
put entries for unstable after testing.  Then try apt-get install 
lilypond/unstable.
