Lilypond-book can´t find my files
Sorry folks, another wall I ran my head into ... I managed to install lilypond-book and run it. However, when I give it a file to feed on (deadwood.lytex - written with latex and extension changed manually, don´t know if that´s right??) it stubbornly insists that the file (intro.ly) is not found lilypond-book: error: file not found: \Users/claus/Documents/Lilypond/Transcriptions/Deadwood/intro.ly even if it´s definitely there: Claus-Rogges-Computer.local ~/Documents/Lilypond/Transcriptions/Deadwood claus$ls total 5016 -rw-r--r-- 1 claus claus 8 Jan 27 12:57 deadwood.aux -rw-r--r-- 1 claus claus5532 Jan 27 12:57 deadwood.log -rw-r--r-- 1 claus wheel 313 Jan 28 09:21 deadwood.lytex -rw-r--r-- 1 claus claus 191115 Jan 27 12:57 deadwood.pdf -rw-r--r-- 1 claus wheel 316 Jan 28 09:14 deadwood.tex >>-rw-r--r-- 1 claus wheel1105 Jan 27 10:40 intro.ly -rw-r--r-- 1 claus claus 71531 Jan 27 10:47 intro.pdf -rw-r--r-- 1 claus claus 511567 Jan 27 10:47 intro.ps -rw-r--r-- 1 claus claus 55 Jan 28 09:27 snippet-map.ly -rw-r--r-- 1 claus wheel 946 Jan 27 10:47 strophe.ly -rw-r--r-- 1 claus claus 65189 Jan 27 10:47 strophe.pdf -rw-r--r-- 1 claus claus 508160 Jan 27 10:47 strophe.ps -rw-r--r-- 1 claus claus 8 Jan 28 09:27 tmpfOi7SA.aux -rw-r--r-- 1 claus wheel1021 Jan 27 10:48 zwsp1.ly -rw-r--r-- 1 claus claus 66000 Jan 27 10:48 zwsp1.pdf -rw-r--r-- 1 claus claus 506118 Jan 27 10:48 zwsp1.ps -rw-r--r-- 1 claus wheel 983 Jan 27 10:48 zwsp2.ly -rw-r--r-- 1 claus claus 69736 Jan 27 10:48 zwsp2.pdf -rw-r--r-- 1 claus claus 513199 Jan 27 10:48 zwsp2.ps I hope that my questions are getting less dumb along the way but please give me another chance!

Re: proposal: second style for quartertone accidentals
Hi all,
thanks for pointing that out. That's exactly along the lines I was
thinking. Is anybody capable of doing the scheme/lilypond code? I
don't know Metafont yet but I think I could handle that part and throw
in the glyphs (they are currently PS Type1).

pageBreak-layout again
Dear list,
Yesterday I posted:
"Between every System I put a \break, between every Page a \pageBreak
The first page is fine, the second is spread on two pages , why??"
Now, just to see what happens, I remove all \breaks and \pageBreaks.
The result is the other way around: on the first page are 5 vertical-
well-spaced systems, on the second page 4 Systems are glued together
on the first half of the page.
Please have mercy with an exited beginner who want to learn and give
a help...

If you want to control all the page breaking manually, you should also
tell lilypond _not_ to break where you don't want it to break. For
example, you could say something like
breaks = {
\repeat unfold 10 {s1 \noPageBreak}
\pageBreak
\repeat unfold 13 {s1 \noPageBreak}
\pageBreak
\repeat unfold 5 {s1 \noPageBreak}
flute = \relative c {music...}
clarinet = \relative c {music...}
\score {
<<
\new Staff <<\flute \breaks>>
\new Staff \clarinet
>>
}
By the way, I recommend to put the "\new Staff" in the score block and
not in the definition of the variables. That way, you have more
flexibility for tweaks like this (or, for example, if you want to put
the flute and the clarinet in the same staff).

Re: Lilypond Tool
Hi folks, I'm a BIG fan of Lilypond Tool now!! I've just installed it in my jEdit on my Windoze machine, and run a few files. The Console which shows you what's happening makes it more like my FreeBSD machine in visibility, and the PDF viewer with click-to-find is super! And the Midi launcher -- great! And looking through the menu items, I'm just beginning to scratch the surface of the possibilities. BUT ... It seems to take an inordinate amount of time to process these files. I'm not working on huge files -- most are songs that fit on one page. But they take (according to the Console window) the best part of five minutes to process. Any ideas on how to streamline this? I've tried un-checking the "complex parser", but that doesn't help, and if I click "Restart Lilypond Tool, it quits the process with "permission denied". And sometime, for no apparent reason, the convert-ly function comes up with "Bean-shell error". Dunno why. So any help in making my system as efficient as possible is appreciated. Lily never took so long in the drat-&-drop method on Windoze, or on my FreeBSD machine. I'd like it to be faster than it is if possible.

Some horizontal spacing problems.
Hello,
Before I begin I'd just like to say how much I enjoy using Lilypond - there is
absolutely nothing like it.
I have to problems that I would desperately like some advice:
1. I'm writing some exercises consisting of three bars. The main part is in the
first two bars and the final bar is is just a single note ending. Something
like:
\time 4/4 %etc.
c4 c4 c4 c4 | c4 c4 c4 c4 | c1 \bar "|."

The problem here is that I'd like the 16th notes to lie directly above the the

PNG size issue
Hi all !I have a problem with a png file generated with lilypond. Here is my
lily file :\version "2.10.6"#(ly:set-option 'point-and-click #f)\header {
title = "toto"}\paper { #(set-paper-size "a4")}melody = \relative c' { \clef
treble \key c \major \time 4/4 a4 b c d}\score { \new Staff \melody
\layout { }}}I run : lilypond --verbose --png -dresolution=72 --pdf test.lyAs
paper-size is A4 and resolution is 72dpi the resulting png must be 595 x 842 px
BUT it's 612 x 792 px (that is an US-letter with the same resolution ..)On a
multipage sheet, I got several png with the good size.More weird : if I check
lily output I see that lily call : gs -dEPSCrop -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4
-dTextAlphaBits=4 -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=png16m -sOutputFile="test.png" -r72
"test.ps" -c quitWhen I executed this line after running lilypond my PNG is
overwritted by a PNG with the good size !Is it a bug ? Or do I miss something
?PS : by the way, is there a way to specify that I want only black and white
PNG ??

Re: Some horizontal spacing problems.
Quoting Charles Gentry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Hello,
Before I begin I'd just like to say how much I enjoy using Lilypond -
there is
absolutely nothing like it.
I have to problems that I would desperately like some advice:
1. I'm writing some exercises consisting of three bars. The main part
is in the
first two bars and the final bar is is just a single note ending.
Something like:
\time 4/4 %etc.
c4 c4 c4 c4 | c4 c4 c4 c4 | c1 \bar "|."
What I would like to do is alter the horizontal spacing so that the first two
bars take up the majority of the line while the last bar is very
small and tight
so that the final c1 is really squashed between the bars.
First of all, do you want the examples to be stretched over the full
line width? Otherwise you can use
\layout{
ragged-right=##t }
Since the spacing is based on the duration of each note, you can get
what you want if you replace the c1 by c1*1/16 for example.
2. I have a polyphonic phrase with triplets in the bottom voice and
dotted 8th
and 16th notes in the upper voice.
\time 4/4 %etc.
\relative c' {
<<{
8. 16 8. 16
8. 16 8. 16
}\\{
\override TupletNumber #'transparent = ##t
\set tupletSpannerDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1 4)
\times 2/3 {
c,8 g' f
e8 g c,
b8 d c
b8 d g,
}
}>>
}
The problem here is that I'd like the 16th notes to lie directly
above the the
last note in each triplet (since the dotted 8th and the 16th should
be the same
time length as a triplet of 8ths). At the moment the upper voice is noticably
out of line to the right.
I've checked the documentation and other sources for advice but to no
avail. If
you can provide any solution please write back.
The solution is the same as in your previous question, namely to scale
the durations. See section "Scaling durations".

Re: proposal: second style for quartertone accidentals
I agree %100 with the addition of accidentals with arrows. However, I also think that both, the standard 1/4 and 3/4 tone signs Lilypond already has and the new ones should both be accessible, and, ideally, within the same "notehead-style". Otherwise combining them in a single score would require one to be changing styles inside the score, which would not be ideal in that case. Since we are into adding new accidental signs, I would also actually like the inclusion of arrows (up and down) not only the stadard accidentals Orm suggests, but also on the 1/4 and 3/4 sharp and flat signs lilypond already has. This would allow for a finer pitch resolution. Here's a png of what i'm thinking. Pay no attention to the style though; this is secondary. .. ideas?

Lead sheet examples?
I'm not sure if what I'm seeing is a design flaw or user
ignorance. Probably the latter because I just started using LP
yesterday. But I haven't been able to find an example or explanation
in the user guide to help me with this.
Here's my question: In the presence of "\repeat volta", how do I get
the chord symbols placed properly on a lead sheet?
The problem I'm having is that the chord symbols are placed above the
lines that delineate the first and second endings. The chord symbols
should be below those lines.
Below is one example input file. The chords don't reflect the repeat
properly, but that's immaterial and relatively easy for me to fix. The
issue is the placement of the chord symbols above the lines that
delineate first and second endings.
As I said, this is probably user error. But lead sheets are a common
thing and it seems like a documentation bug that there is no example
and no discussion of how to do this.
If anyone can show me the right way, I'll be very grateful! Thanks in
advance!

The vast majority of new files you will create, with just about any OS X app, will have Unix-style line endings. Most of the good text editors have added a function to convert either way in case you run into trouble with something - but mainly you should stick to the Unix style.

Thanks. That helps quite a bit, and I looked through the archives,
too. The problem now is that the volta lines are much too high,
especially the one for the first ending where there is no chord symbol
underneath it. But even the second one is too high.
How should I fix that? Below is my little example file as it stands
now.

Re: Lead sheet examples?
For the record, the answer to your original question can also be found in
an example in the Tips and Tricks document (I'm sure it's included in the
LilyPond Snippet Repository as well).
To reduce the spacing, you can do
\new ChordNames \with {
chordChanges = ##t
voltaOnThisStaff = ##t
\override VoltaBracket #'minimum-space =#0
} { ... }
The default value for minimum-space is 5, which makes sense for ordinary
staves, but clearly not for chords.

Re: lilypond and eps
In Windows, I guess it's normal that you can't see any embedded EPS files on screen, but they normally show up in the printed output if you have a postscript printer. In Linux, my best guess is that you should try a newer version of Ghostscript (if you can choose between an AFPL and a GNU version, you should pick the AFPL one, since they normally include more recent features). /Mats confrey wrote: I'm using lilypond on ubunt edgy and windows, I'm using OOoLilypond too; in linux, when I try to view eps files generated by lilypond-book, I can't see the staff and the stems only; in windows, if I set OOoLilypond to use eps instead of png, I can't view anything.

Re: proposal: second style for quartertone accidentals
I don't really see the problem. What you already have proposed is to use property settings to change between the different styles. To save some typing, it will then be easy to add macros such as \arrowQuarterToneAccidentals (please make up something shorter) and \...whatever, to easily change between these different styles. Of course, the properties to specify the note head style and the accidental style will be separate, so there's no coupling between them (unless you want to make macros that set both at the same time). /Mats Orm Finnendahl wrote: Hi, we use additional simple up/down arrows placed left to normal accidentals, giving a concise way to specify the complete eighth tone scale.
