Re: Adding number to percent repeat
In message <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Ishizaki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes Hi, I'm using Lilypond 2.4.6 on Linux. Is there anyway to print repeated number onto the percent sign? Like this, 2 3 4 5 [music] | % | % | % | % | [another music] |... Oddly enough, I was thinking of asking the same question ... Incidentally, if it can't be done at present and someone is thinking of doing it, a related problem is exactly the same thing but with \unfold. eg 2 3 4 [music] | [samemusic] | [samemusic] | [samemusic] | [anothermusic] which I often come across. The latter probably isn't too hard to rig, but the former I don't know how to do. Oh - and something to watch out for - when using \unfold, the first repeated bar often has to be explicitly coded because of non-music expressions such as dynamics in the first bar, so whereas with % it would put '2' over the first repeated bar, with \unfold it may need to put '2' over the first bar.

mac osx emacs lilypond-mode
might anyone have any hints on how to get the emacs lilypond-mode to work on macos 10.3.9? i have been using jEdit very happily up to now, but the point-and-click function doesn't seem to be compatible with the two versions i have (2.5.23 and 2.5.0). it returns a bean shell error when i try to "enable point-and-click" and selecting "view output dvi" gives me an empty jDvi viewer. the documentation for the new pdf hyperlink point-and-click addresses emacs and vim, so i thought i'd try emacs. the installation documentation for lilypond-mode in emacs doesn't refer specifically to macos 10.x and i can't figure out where to put the .el files. i can find no .emacs file, and no matter which combination of where i place the lilypond-init.el and other .el files into the various /site-start and /site-lips folders i've found, when i start emacs and perform an M-x, i am offered no option for lilypond-mode. (i assume this is the correct procedure, since i can successfully select latex-mode this way and it functions fine). i have made long attempts with the fink installation of emacs, XEmacs, enhanced carbon emacs, and emacs for aqua, but just ain't gettin' it. i have installed firefox and Xpdf, as the documentation instructs, and modified the xpdfrc and prefs.js files. all three of my PDF viewers successfully identify the hyperlinks (Xpdf, Preview, and Acrobat Reader), but clicking on them does nothing. thanks in advance for any clues. best, sean Sean Reed Hamburg, Germany Web: www.seanreed.de ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
multiple tempi
hello list. I am new to lilypond, and cant really use it well yet. I have used other software in the past, but recently I have not found them to be flexible enough for what I wish to create. I am composing music with multiple simultaneous tempi, which is to be played by musicians with a click track. I would like to produce scores using musical notation software, but have not yet found one which makes this possible. before I get into learning lilypond, I would like to inquire as to whether it would be possible to create scores using it which have multiple simultaneous tempi. thanks for your help James ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: multiple tempi
Take a look at http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.4/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/Polymetric-notation.html#Polymetric-notation and see if it suits your needs. The main focus of LilyPond is to notate 19th century western music, but as you can see if you browse through the manual, there's some support for more modern music as well. I could also recommend to browse through the Tips and Trics document and the Regression test document, to get an idea of what the program is capable of. /Mats Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED]: > hello list. > > I am new to lilypond, and cant really use it well yet.

Re: dvips issue with lilypond?
If you rerun lilypond with the flag lilypond --verbose ... and send the corresponding output to the mailing list, you can get more help, it's very hard to say anything from the outputs you have sent now. A wild guess: do you have the new teTeX version 3? LilyPond version 2.4.2 is slightly incompatible with teTeX 3 (the simple fix can be found in the mailing list archives though). /Mats Quoting "Zoltan V.

Re: mac osx emacs lilypond-mode
To create a .emacs file, simply start editing one. For example by: C-x C-f ~/.emacs If you do: C-h v load-path it will show you the path emacs searches when it looks for files. There are bound to be a whole lot of directories in them. Just put your files in one of them. Alternatively, if you want to add a directory to the load-path, add the following to your .emacs file: (add-to-list 'load-path "/sw/share/emacs/site-lisp" t) Where /sw/share/emacs/site-lisp is the name of the directory you want to add to the load-path. By the way, if you are new to emacs, it wouldn't do no harm to read the tutorial which you can access via the 'help' menu, or via C-h t (That is control-h t) I never could get point-and-click to work on Mac OS X 10.3.n, not even when using X11 and xdvi and emacs via X11, so if it works for you I'd be delighted to know.

RE: special character
Jeroen -
Using 2.4.3, the \char may be used as:
c^\markup {"pi" \char #249 }
It doesn't kern properly, but \hspace can correct that.
Specifically, how do you use the \\`u construct? I can't find a way.

Hello,
Thank you for your quick response. I'm using LilyPond-2.4.5 on RH9; my
text editor (gedit-2.2.0) is set to use UTF-8 when saving. I didn't
quite understand how to implement the "char #249" (still a newbie), so I
tried using TeX coding "\\`u" and this works wonderfully well.
Thank you so much / Tusen takk

Please tell us which verison you are using when reporting problems.
The system for markup has changed drastically lately; if you use the latest
2.5 releases, your code should work. If you use 2.4 or older, you could try
to use the TeX coding for รน, I think this is something like "\\`u".

Re: mac osx emacs lilypond-mode
hi arjan, thanks for the response. i still must be doing something wrong, or not understanding something. i created an .emacs file and added-to-list 'load-path the directories /sw/etc/emacs21/site-start.d (where i have lilypond-init.el) and /sw/share/emacs21/site-lisp (where i have lilypond-mode.el, -indent.el, -font-lock.el etc.). having quit and restarted the program, i used C-h v load-path and saw that both directories were now indeed listed the load-paths. but M-x gave me no option for loading any lilypond-mode. is that not how you load it? could it be a version discrepancy? (installed emacs 21.3.50 via fink today). i am (pretty much) brand new (again) to emacs and went through the whole tutorial with C-h t today. even if the point-and-click doesn't work out, i would be interested in learning it a bit more, since i would consider using it for latex documents and eventually for CLM at some point again (which is where i used it bumbingly a couple of months 5 years ago for the first time). thanks again for any tips. best, sean Sean Reed Hamburg, Germany Web: www.seanreed.de On 07.05.2005, at 21:21, Arjan Bos wrote: To create a .emacs file, simply start editing one.
