You got it right.

Try a recent 1.7 release.

2) I'd like to be able to have the bassnote printed in lowercase instead

3) I'm Danish. In this strange country we write "H" when everybody else
writes "B". So how do I get "B" in chordnames?
Take a look at input/test/chord-names-german.ly in latest cvs 
(1.7.20.something).
I am sorry, but I am afraid that you will have to compile for yourself.

Is this caused by me using æ (ae), ø (slashed o), å (circle over a) and
ü (two dots over u)? The output looks fine in xdvi, should I simply
ignore the warnings?
This is a known and afaik unsolved problem.
The letters are correct, but the spacing gets messed up. :-(

Did you try

\property Lyrics.LyricText \override #'font-name = #"ecrm1000"

(assuming that the question was about lyrics, you can do
similar settings for text scripts, for example)

unable to launch Lilypond

2003-06-10 Thread Roy Schienmann
GNU LilyPond 1.6.6ERROR: In procedure primitive-load-path:
ERROR: Unable to find file "ice-9/boot-9.scm" in load path
This is the message I receive after I type in   /sw/bin/lilypond   
using terminal on OS X (10.2.3). I'm a complete unix newbie using 
FinkCommander to install unix apps. I've had success installing and 
launching The Gimp in the previously mentioned manner. When 
FinkCommander had finished installing Lilypond, I got the following 
message -

Installation Complete.
@@@ Start a new shell to get the correct lilypond environment settings.
* GNU LilyPond: (lilypond).The GNU music typesetter.
install-info(/sw/share/info/lilypond.info): no section specified for 
new entry, placing at end
* GNU LilyPond internals: (lilypond-internals). LilyPond internals.
install-info(/sw/share/info/lilypond-internals.info): creating new 
section `GNU music project'

Do you have any suggestions or solutions that will get me up and 
running Lilypond?
I thank you for your time and patience with a unix newbie.

lilypond 1.6.10 on Slackware 9.0 done.

2003-06-10 Thread Hin-Tak Leung
It is currently working quite alright on my box (almost stock Slackware
9.0, except the kernel), so I thought I'll write to add to the documentation.
It is gcc 3.2.2, BTW, so the info might be useful to other systems.
Firstly, I need these packages to build lilypond plus docs
(in addition to what's on the slackware 9.0 CD). Slackware 9 ships
flex 2.5.4a, which doesn't work with gcc 3.2.2 regarding lilypond.
(upgrading flex works, while neither of the gcc 3.0.x and gcc3.1.x tips
regarding flex 2.5.4a work for gcc 3.2.2).

flex-2.5.31-0 Fri Jun  6 14:20:23 2003
autotrace-0.30-1  Fri Jun  6 14:16:59 2003
mftrace-1.0.17-1  Fri Jun  6 14:14:13 2003
pfaedit-030518-1  Fri Jun  6 04:57:57 2003
(I wish the readme/install file is more clear about the requirements)
I tried rpm -bb lilypond-x.y.z/make/out/lilypond.redhat.spec
with both 1.6.10 and 1.7.20, but it bombed out during generation
of lilypond.dvi. Turn out Slackware 9 has a similar problem regarding
TeX's memory usage as debian. Only extra_mem_top and extra_mem_bot
needs changing - pool_size is 125, much larger than lilypond needs.
Then I found that the generated lilypond.pdf is broken. (funny rhombus
shape where the notes should be).
Turned out there is a lot of problem with the
dvips -ulilypond.map -Ppdf lilypond.dvi . First, it doesn't work (pdf broken).
Second, it leaves behind stale pk files in /var/cache which breaks dvips
lilypond.dvi (without any options), or indeed any dvi file using
the feta fonts. Something to do with trying to generate pk files at 8000dpi
without success, and back down to 600dpi, dumping pk fonts in /var/cache.
Anyway, here is what works:
(1) remove the stale pk files under /var/cache/fonts
(2) use dvips -ulilypond.map -Poutline lilypond.dvi
(or -Pcmz). -Ppdf is definitely bad.
This is as much as I remember. (it took a long time and a lot of trial and
error to fix everything). But yes, the quality is good as typical of TeX-derived
systems.
