invoking lily from python
Dear all, I'm calling lily from inside IDLE of Python, using module os with function os.system. I post this as I know Python is largely used among lilyponders. The same command line (/sw/bin/lilypond /Users/apple/Desktop/test.ly) from shell and from os.system gives two different results. From shell it works perfectly (obviously). (apples-Computer:~ apple$ /sw/bin/lilypond /Users/apple/Desktop/test.ly) From os.system I have as output only the file test.tex, which is ok, but there are no other files. os.system ends with 0, which means all was ok. >>> cmd="/sw/bin/lilypond /Users/apple/Desktop/test.ly" >>> os.system(cmd) 0 Should I call explicitly the "convert" part to which lily refers printing on screen the following lines in command line mode? Converting to `test.dvi'... Converting to `test.ps'... Converting to `test.pdf'... It seems to me that this part is skipped when invoking from IDLE. Any hints?

More pictures to manual
Hi, I don't know whos making the documentation for Lilypond, but my suggestion is to put many, many, many ... more pictures to the manual! The easiest way to learn Lilypond and to manage the difficulties would be to have something like a cook book. In this cook book you see nearly all different ways to make staff-modes, chord-modes, choir-mode ... and you can just combine them to the results you want to have! At the moment this does not suffice for me. The manual just gives the basics, but to get the result from this basics is still very, very difficult! To write the notes is very, very easy, but to put different staves together or something else still drives me gracy. I could waste many stupid questions if there is a manual with many, many more pictures, showing nearly all possibilites to put staves and notes together! Is it possible to make such a manual?? ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

How? I know only english and cyrillic layouts. Even if I install another
language keymap I still would not know what keys to press... most people
are bilingual and have no means of entering something that they can't
type. I switched to 2.5 exactly because of Unicode support to use Russian
in scores, but why drop these \'u & co niceties? At least may be it would
help if lilypond documentation will include all languages alphabets to do
cut'n'paste (somewhat lousy solution, but better than nothing I guess)...
BTW, since this piuf is not very rare dynamics mark may be it's time
to include it into lilypond distribution? :)

[OT] timidity Again
I wrote to the lilypond list last year regarding problems installing timidity properly on OS X. Somehow I did it, but my method has long been forgotten. I tried to reinstall timidity and ran into troubles. Compiling from source and moving the product to /sw/bin (where it usually sits), I execute 'timidity '. /usr/local/share/timidity/timidity.cfg: No such file or directory timidity: Can't read any configuration file. Please check /usr/local/share/timidity/timidity.cfg Now, I have a config file, but not at that location. In fact, there is no such dir /usr, let alone anything beneath that. The closest-looking place to that filepath is where I normally keep my config file: /sw/share/timidity/timidity.cfg . As recommended by the doc INSTALL, I went into the header files and hard-coded the desired filepath in. This also required opening the permissions on the directory to RW. Upon re-execution of the above, it runs, but none of the MIDI instruments play because No instrument mapped to tone bank 0, program 45 - this instrument will not be heard No instrument mapped to tone bank 0, program 48 - this instrument will not be heard No instrument mapped to tone bank 0, program 70 - this instrument will not be heard No instrument mapped to tone bank 0, program 73 - this instrument will not be heard No pre-resampling cache hit The .cfg file worked perfectly with the old version, considering it had just one line: 'soundfont unison.sf2' with the soundfont file in the same dir. Now I'm out of ideas. Any thoughts?

I'd stick it in /usr/local/bin or ~/bin (add ~/bin to your path). Doesn't really make a difference, though. /usr/local/share/timidity/timidity.cfg: No such file or directory Now, I have a config file, but not at that location. In fact, there is no such dir /usr, let alone anything beneath that. Actually, there is. It doesn't show up in the Finder, but OSX has the whole /etc, /usr, /var, etc -- all the standard unix directories.

Sorry, no ideas right now. I might try installing timidity in a few days; if I do, I'll certainly post notes.

Re: How contexts fit together - doc suggestion

Just checking this sort of thing doesn't exist in the manual at the moment. It only exists in the internals (which you noted). The only possible downside of a doc page about this is that if the context relationships change at some point in the future, the doc would become out of date (whereas the internals would change to reflect it, since they're automatically generated). That said, I don't think that the context relationships will change much. If they do, the doc page can be updated easily. So please write such a page! I imagine that it would become section 9.1.7 (at the end of the Intreptation contexts section).
