My lilypond is installed in /sw/bin. It should be there for you as well... $ which lilypond <-- This command /sw/bin/lilypond<--- gives this output on my system. Hope you get it working!

Problem running configure with 2.4.2 (ec-fonts-mftraced)
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi! :-) I am trying to install lilypond version 2.4.2 (I currently have 2.2.0), but can't finish "configure" correctly. After downloading and installing everything needed (I think... :-)), I get this message: "ERROR: Please install required programs: package ec-fonts-mftraced" But i installed it! When I do "rpm -q ec-fonts-mftraced" I get: ec-fonts-mftraced-1.0.8-1 What am I doing wrong? My system is mandrake 10.0. Thank you for your great software Luis :-) ___ lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

First you should name the notes after a
variable = \context Voice = "voicename" \relative c' {
notes here
}
After that.. the \lyricsto use "voicename" as a position mapper :)

Would it make a lot of difference to use the chord notation
4 2 4
with whatever ', octaviation required, (note that the octaviation considers
only the first note of each chord), instead of:
<< { d4 bf c2 d4 bf c } \\
{ bf4 f f2 bf4 f f } >>

Try giving it a \context Voice = "name" first.. then send your comments and
results .. so that it helps others looking for similar solutions.

This is (right now) a highly experimental and not yet useful feature for post-processing lilypond output in a WYSIWYG manner (instead of manually offsetting X and Y positions, you can drag and drop the objects). One of the main goals for v3.0 (if I understood it correctly) is to make this fairly usable, and also to use this system to replace the point-and-click feature of xdvi. In the long run, the gnome output mode could make many interesting new features possible. See Han-Wen's post "battle-plan for 2.5 development" on lilypond-devel for ideas.

what is the gnome backend and other questions
Hi I havent upgraded lilypond in a while but am thinking of it. I noticed a few things that piqued my curiosity and was wondering: What is the gnome backend and what is it used for? version 2.5.1 mentions our graphical layout editor, what is this? What is the svg backend? Thanks Aaron ___ lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
