Thanks for answering Graham, I made a mistake, I put
words={
} "!"
With the "!" within the brackets it works :/
But still I'm afraid that this is not the solution. When I do
WordsFouFO = \lyrics {"#"} it says:
ly2dvi:error: LaTeX failed on the output file.
ly2dvi:error: The error log is as follows:
! You can't use `macro parameter character #' in restricted horizontal

With \lyrics{\\#} it says:

etc...
Isn't there a method to tell that I want ascii character 214 from font
wncyr10 for instance?
And does one know where I can get the Cyrillic R, mirrorred about its
vertical axis, and this character which resembles most the 'X', but with
some more small lines? (sorry, I don't know the name of it).

installation woes on OpenBSD
Hi, and thanks for wonderful software. I'm trying to compile and install Lilypond 1.6.9 on OpenBSD 3.3, but I can't seem to get past the ./configure stage.

Re: how to include various ascii characters (like: !) in the text?
The names of the letters you are looking for are pronounced "yah" and "zhuh" (as in the word pleasure). These are just my method of approximating the sound of these letter's names in English. The unicode names are "Cyrillic capital letter zhe" and "Cyrillic capital letter ya". In Cyrillic, the names of course are written as just the letters themselves. I don't understand where you are getting the other Cyrillic letters. Are you trying to approximate them with roman/english letters? Or are you using a Cyrillic font?

You have \include "english.ly"? "!" is not supposed to be a special character in English, but perhaps in Dutch it is. Otherwise, you have found a bug to report. Try "\\!" and "\!" . Thanks for the question, because if "$\\!$" gives a bit of negative space I'll be very glad I looked it up in ``The Not So Short Introduction to \latex 2\epsilon''. With math mode, "\!" should give you some negative space in text, and that should be very handy for us if it works.

Re: how to include various ascii characters (like: !) in the text?
If you want ASCII character 214, you just need a text editor that
enables you to input that ASCII value as a character.
In Emacs, for example, type
CTRL-Q 3 2 6 RETURN
(since 326 is octal for 214). If you have a German or nordic
keyboard, you can also press Ö, since it has character code 214 in
the Latin 1 encoding. If you have a Cyrillic keyboard, I'm sure you
can just press the desired key directly unless your editor plays
some funny games.
To set the font, you'll have to say something like:
\property Lyrics . LyricText \override #'font-name = #"wncyr10"

With math mode, "\!" should give you some negative space in text, and

If you want to use it in the Lyrics of a score, I'm afraid this
won't work the way you expect it, since the spacing calculations
in Lilypond don't understand these more advanced aspects of LaTeX
and will get completely confused.
You can certainly use it in the title, though. Also, you could use
things such as \hspace{-3mm}.

Re: turning off warnings
I can't give any good answer about the warnings (except for a sed script to sort them out), but fermatas and staccatos are typeset by the graphical object (grob) Script, so \property TabVoice.Script \override #'transparent = ##t should work. You can easily find this out yourself, for example by searching for "fermata" in the index of the on-line manual. If you scroll down the page, you'll find a link to "Script" which lists all the possible properties that affect fermatas and other articulation marks. /Mats Simon Weatherill wrote: I'm notating some guitar music and would love to get rid of the warnings I get from string numbers on the staff and glissando's on the tabulature.

I did use a Cyrillic font indeed, but inside that font, I could not find yet the characters corresponding with 'zhuh' and 'yah'. :) What I did was make a lyric with all characters a - z, both in capital as in small, once printing them using \property LyricsVoice . LyricText \override #'font-name = #"cmr12" which gives the roman fonts, and once with \property LyricsVoice . LyricText \override #'font-name = #"wncyr10" which I then had to magnify by 1.2 because the wncyr12 isn't there. Only, as I said, the 'yah' and 'zhuh' didn't come out using this method. Various accented chars give error messages, others gives garbage. But I have the feeling that I didn't explore the full character set yet with this method, so maybe they are somewhere inside the font, but I just don't seen to be able to find them.

Re: how to include various ascii characters (like: !) in the text?
You could say \\char214 which will just be forwarded to the
TeX output. However, I recommend to insert the 8bit character
directly into the file instead, since it enables Lilypond to
calculated the correct width of each syllable when it determines
the spacing between the notes.

Re: more stupid questions
Did you try \property Lyrics.LyricText \override #'font-name = #"ecrm1000" This won't help. Because the T1 font encoding does not match the latin1 encoding. In fact it has also some letters from latin2. I've been getting these messages for years. The only solution for this is to use a similar input _AND_ output encoding mechanism as LaTeX. I think the easiest way would be to use tex for this issue. I must have been lucky, since I have never found any character where the T1 font encoding differs from the Latin1 character encoding, but I haven't compared every single character. At least, the solution above works for swedish characters. /Mats ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Does anyone know if there is a way to do this? A separate midi version may be the only way right now. You could use \time 33/32 a8 \time 31/32 a8 (experiment) or use very large time values with ties for the long notes. You will find that jazz 8ths are much closer to straight 8ths than they are to a triplet, or even to a 3:2 quintuplet. I imagined that the latter would do it until I tried it.

(almost) solved: how to include cyrillic characters in the lyrics?

problems in the music (my first with lilypond - a marvellously charming
program if I may say) that I was typesetting.
The result of the work until now is here:
http://www.infopower.nl/lily/wa_loezjagRu3test.pdf
http://www.infopower.nl/lily/wa_loezjagRu3test.ly
and I'm glad to say that I think that it already almost looks good :)
however, I still do have two or three questions:
1. How can I shift the last (the 'yah') character of the second voice a
bit to the left? LaTeX command?
2. How can I shift the 'accents' ('>'sign) a bit up and down?
(read this in fixed pitch font mode)
__
3. How can I shift the 'voltas' (like the |1.-3. | ) a bit up?
Normally the first volta would be lower that the second, due to the one
octave lower g, and would overlap the measure numbering box. I now
solved it putting an invisible g'' in measure 13, using an additional
voice just for doing that... I hope there's a better solution?
Thanks a lot!

putting an accent a bit down
Hello all,
in the following score I'd love to shift the accent a little bit lower.
\score { \notes \relative c' {
\slurDown f'8_>( )b,8 f2 a b c d e f g a b c d e f g
}}
I've tried it with a propertie which I tried to derive from the method
to shift the slur:
( \property Voice.Slur \override #'extra-offset = #'(0 . -1.2) )
and made:
\property Voice.Accent \override #'extra-offset = #'(0 . -1.2)
which in my opinion was the logical thing to do. Disappointment... it
didn't work. Can anybody help?
thanks,

Re: putting an accent a bit down
Why guess when you can easily find the answer in the manual:
Goto www.lilypond.org, click on manual and browse through the
table of contents to find the section on "Articulations", scroll down
to the bottom of the page and follow the link to "Script", which
will provide you with the name of the graphical object to set the
property of ("Script") and a full list of the available properties.
Personally, I prefer to use the "padding" property instead of the
"extra-offset" in all these situations.

Check out the properties for the VoltaBracket object (you can find the

Re: Lilypond Question
Since the typesetting of the titles is done by TeX, you can use any standard TeX or LaTeX command to specify the font. The low-level TeX way to do it is \font\myfont=wncyr10\myfont but I'm sure you can find a high-level LaTeX method as well. /Mats ario wrote: On Tue, 2003-06-17 at 15:09, Rob Vlasaty wrote: I saw your question on the Lilypond mail website.

Re: putting an accent a bit down
Mats, I know I'm not such a crack, I really looked around alot through
the manual but did not find this solution. And when I came to these
'script interfaces', 'engravers' etc., I felt that I'd first need a
tutorial with lessons on its own to learn working with these. I must
admit that I hardly grasp the concept of 'contexts'.
The 'property ... override ...' etc. things that I put in my .ly files
until were only copies of snipplets that I found somewhere by accident.
It was merely bluffing than knowing exactly what I'm doing, although
once written down the structure looks logical to me.
However, inventing myself how to use these options is one step too far
without a syllabus about this way of programming, sorry.
regards,
arie - left in despair :)

It'll be a hard day's night, and I'll be working like a beast... until I'll have solved this on my own, but hey, who knows one day I'll get there :) Thanks, and sorry if I missed some earlier valuable hints, it's just that I'm a bit dazzled by having to delve into the LilyPond's internals. arie >/Mats > > ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Title fonts
I've figured out how to change the font of the stanza numbers. I've used the line: \property LyricsVoice . StanzaNumber \set #'font-name = #"cmssi17" (...so I'm proud of myself for figuring that out) Also, when I tried what you suggested. I got it to work by adding it to my .tex file and using lilypond book: \font\myfont=cmssi17\myfont Is there a way to add that line right to the .ly file to access it in ly2dvi for the title and poet, etc.? I found the code \sffamily in the Latex documentation to change the font family to Sans serif. When I added this line to my .tex file for lilypond-book, I got Sans serif text in my ouput. I'm curious if there a command to access the Sans serif font-family in ly2dvi to change the fonts, since it's available in Latex?

Re: Title fonts
ROb, if I do
\header {
.
.
title="Wo Loezjag / \font\myfont=wncyr10\myfont {\huge Vo Luzah}"
.
.
}
then it prints the title in fonetics as well as in cyrillic, so that
works.
However, if I want to insert an ascii code, as \char31, like
title="Wo Loezjag / \font\myfont=wncyr10\myfont {\huge Vo Luzah
\char31}"
then this character is taken from the normal font, not the cyrillic...
what a pity,
arie
