This is a known request.  I think it's number 700-something or
900-something in the issue tracker.  If you're interested, look
for it and read the past discussion.

nice explanation, Whew!

I think it would be better to put it in a \paper block in gregorian.ly, 
since this could then be over-ridden by either \paper or \layout in the 
lilyPond file.

Re: Problem with ragged-last and verse numbers : Slight Return

2010-12-02 Thread Jan-Peter Voigt

Hello Athanasius,

I removed the hidden notes ... then I changed the verse-number-function:

verseNumber = #(define-music-function (parser location number name
shortname) (string? string? string?)
  #{
\set stanza = \markup \smaller \italic $number
\set vocalName  = \markup $name
% same markup as stanza
\set shortVocalName = \markup \smaller $shortname
\override InstrumentName #'font-series  = #'bold
\override InstrumentName #'font-shape   = #'italic
\override InstrumentName #'font-size= #'0.1
\override InstrumentName #'self-alignment-X = #LEFT
% shift numbers to the left
\override InstrumentName #'X-offset = #-1.5
#})

Now the numbers are all of equal size (same markup for stanza and 
shortVocalName) and the numbers a shiftet left.


Regards,
Jan-Peter

vim&Lilypond learning curve_jazzchord font_bars per line? 3 questions

2010-12-02 Thread LazyLew

I have some simple questions - can't find it in the manuals so far, because
there's so much there. 

- is it easy to adapt fonts for chords? I like 'em bold, the way you often
see in jazz sheets.
- is it easy to control the amount of measures per line? I stick to 4 as
rule of thumb as much as possible.
- is the learning curve doable for a combination of vim and Lilypond? I'm
new at both, and am 53, so don't have decades left to learn.

Hello!

First, I would suggest you to read the learning manual. Not with the goal of 
actually typesetting anything, just to actually understand how lilypond works. 
Second, I would suggest you use a more easily accessible tool for typesetting 
your scores than vim. Some are mentioned on the tutorial page of the 
lilypond.org website under easier editing.

i realize that I haven't answered your questions, but your questions may change 
once you've invested the bit of time it takes to actually read (rather than 
search or skim) the learning manual.

I absolutely concur with James' comments.

But to specifically answer your questions.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes, but there are better editors that will leave you more time to 
concentrate on the 'Pond than the editor.

On a Mac anything with changing fonts seems to be very hard to get  
operational.  But the default is pretty legible.  I'm sure someone  
here can provide a tweak that will produce bold fonts for the chord  
names.


- is it easy to control the amount of measures per line? I stick to  
4 as

rule of thumb as much as possible.


I put a \break after every fourth bar in the melody.

Lilypond? I'm

new at both, and am 53, so don't have decades left to learn.


I belong to the other religion, the Church of Emacs.  Vi(m) has its  
adherents, even though I can't understand it.  But any plain text  
editor will do, so long as it will write ASCII text and let you save  
the file with a .ly extension.
