We don't have any further reorganization plans, but the project is
still young.  I expect that in the next half year there may be one
more such reorganization, and then everything should remain stable.

Microtonal key signatures are used in Persian music, which looks nice, cf.

Note that in E31, the rational interval 7/4 is on the augmented 6th, or 25 E31 
tonesteps, whereas the minor 7th is on 26 E31 tonesteps, one E31 tonestep 
higher.

Re: \parenthesize command looks puny compared with reminder accidental

2013-10-30 Thread Richard Shann
Thank your for the helpful replies. I didn't realize that these
parentheses were objects of such high status to warrant their own
interface - I now see I should have looked in the index first and found

http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/internals/parenthesesitem

Your syntax is too modern for the version 2.16, but interpolating with
the reply from Harm I get


\version "2.16" 

{ 
  \override ParenthesesItem #'font-size = #0

 \override ParenthesesItem #'padding = #0.05
  f'?4 \parenthesize f'4 
} 

which works just fine.

Thank you both for the responses,

You could use the search replace function, in regexp mode:

search for:

\b([a-z]+)([',]*)(\d*)

replace with:

<\1\2 \1'>\3

Select the music then press "All" in the search/replace bar.

This will match note, octave and duraction in three regexp groups. Then
the \1, \2 and \3 put the matched text back in the replacement string.

I have been thinking about keeping the horizontal width of the Music
Viewer relative to the width of the main window, when that one is
resized. But it is somewhat hairy to auto-resize a dock-tool window, as
there could be more tools in the same dock.

There are a few options: you show/hide the music view with Meta-Alt-M
(see the shortcuts in the tools menu, all the panels have a
keyboard shortcut)

You can also use Music->Maximize (but unfortunately there is no
unmaximize yet)

When we get drag-editing etc. in the music view then we'd certainly

Like "Draft", it has the wrong connotations.  While a "Debugger" offers
indeed data inspection as one part of its operation, the most important
aspect is the ability to trace program flow.  Also debugging involves
analyzing the internal data and control flow of a program rather than
its output.

This is crucial enough that there are expressions like "post mortem
debugging" for analyzing a core dump.

I don't.  Debugging, like its name suggests, involves the detection and
removal of bugs.  What you listed in this category, however, is mainly
intended to help with _tweaking_ parameters rather than finding and
fixing the cause of errant behavior.

2013/10/30 David Kastrup :

But this is just what some of these features are about!  They display
the internal data so that the user may analyze it:
1) display-control-points.  The output is the slur, i.e. the bezier
curve.  Control-points are internal data.  Displaying control points
shows the user the internal data to answer the question "why this slur
is so ugly?".
2) coloring voices.  It allows to answer a question "why this note has
its stem in a wrong direction?" by displaying internal data, i.e.
voicing info. (note that without this all you see is just the result -
a stem placed in some way, without the "why").
3) skylines: answers the question "why these objects are so far
away/so close?" by showing how lilypond thinks about them.
4) annotate-spacing: "why there is so much/so little space here?" ->
"ah, this padding value is too big/small"
5) paper-columns: shows internal information that can answer the
question "why this horizontal spacing is so awful?"

most of the "debug options" work by showing the user some internal data.

Note that what we're talking about here is not debugging lilypond
code, but debugging LilyPond's layout decisions, by seeing how they
are made.

Your use of the word "debugging" does not even make sense.  "debugging
LilyPond's layout decisions" implies that you find a bug in the way
LilyPond makes its layout decisions and fix this way.

But the principal purpose of what you call "Debug" mode is _not_ to find
and remove bugs in LilyPond itself, but rather to help with adjusting
the parameters of LilyPond source files.

"De-bug" means removing bugs.

Now you can, of course, call the Frescobaldi menus any name you like.
But don't ask for feedback when you don't want it.

The 5-limit Just minor 7th 16/9 will though cause beats with the 7/4 if the 7th 
partial is present though it is suppressed in normal orchestral playing. But I 
think this has long been known, due to the extensive treatment of the augmented 
sixth chords [1], which traditionally are always spelled like that, and not 
enharmonic exchanged with the minor 7th.

If 7/4 is put on the augmented sixth M6#, with m (resp. M) the minor (resp. 
major) second, M6# = m + 4M = 5M, so microtonal accidentals may not be needed 
in E31 for describing 7-limit Just intonation.

Yes, absolutely! Many people think of the interval 7/4 as a type of 7th
(harmonic, barbershop, etc.) but I strongly believe that it should be
understood as an augmented 6th (125/72 ≈ 7/4). Just because it's a 7-limit
interval, it doesn't make it a 7th. Likewise, you don't call the JI major
3rd a "5th" because it's a 5-limit interval. This has important
implications in terms of voice leading and harmonic progression.

Fokker (and hence the "Dutch school"?) happened to have chosen to use flats
exclusively (semi-flat, flat, sesquiflat, double-flat, and even 2½ flat!)
for practical reasons, but I don't agree with that as it obscures the
harmonic function of each note. This has the consequence that the interval
7/4 is spelt, for example, as C - B-sesquiflat, making it look like a sort
of 7th. Although the "Dutch school" approach doesn't have the same notion
of harmonic function as in the traditional sense, Fokker did consider the
interval 7/4 to be a sort of 7th, and consequently the chord C - E - G -
B-sesquiflat a "dominant 7th". This is in direct contradiction with JI
theory.

I agree with David here.  Having bugs implies something is broken and
doesn't work, not just that the layout is not exactly what you'd want (which
is always somewhat subjective).

Yes, but I don't think most people would make this distinction, and it might
be confusing.  Is this mode for debugging Frescobaldi?, or LilyPond?, or...? 
I think for most people debugging is something that's done with software,
but not something you do with the content of the files created with that
software.  

(And if the user needs to "debug" their files it probably doesn't reflect
well on the software that created them.)

I think "inspect" is clearer with less potential for confusion.  (Although
if later it becomes possible to drag control points with a mouse then it
seems you will have gone beyond "inspecting" to "editing" or "advanced
editing" or... ?)

Just my thoughts FWIW,
-Paul

"Details", "Layout control", "Finishing".  There are a number of terms
that seem more appropriate than "Debug".

How about "Proof"?

Thanks for the heads-up.  

It may be necessary to install the new version of the developer software and 
the associated command line tools in order for MacPorts to update correctly.  
It may also be that the new OS broke something that has to be fixed.  

I hadn't updated to Mavericks yet and may put that off for a while due to this 
and another issue- I will also lose my favorite NNTP client as it requires Open 
Transport (a legacy item that's almost 20 years old, finally expunged after 
hanging around from System 7.5.2 through OS X 10.8.5).  Sad to see 
MT-NewsWatcher go.

OTOH, for the first time in many installation attempts, Frescobaldi does 
finally work on my Mac under 10.8.5 thanks to the latest portfile.  I was 
highly surprised when it worked!  Nice job, David L.

I do still find myself using Marc's LilyEditor as it's quicker to launch (I 
apparently can't assign .ly and .ily files to go to Frescobaldi when double 
clicked, for some reason unknown to me, so when I have to do something quick 
LilyEditor gets the file).

That's a nice idea; I missed the initial offer.

Please one hardcover for me.
