2004-11-20 Thread Graham Percival
Similar to my other request, I'd like to request an easy mechanism for inserting grace notes at the end of a bar. (this arose for me recently with typesetting a Schubert clarinet piece) If we imagine that the bar line really is a bar line (rather than just a bar line check), then c1 \grace {b c} |

We discussed this a few months ago, but I'd like to reiterate this request (so that Erik can include it in his list). I'd like to easily typeset ending a cresc/decresc at the end of a note. For example, c1\> ~ c1\_! would place the ending of the decresc at the end of the second c1. I'm not concer

Hello again, I am currently writing the guitar parts (two) for "Zombie" both as an exercise to get confident with lilypond and to test some features. (Oh, also because I play it with a band ;-) Now, you know that elguit music has TONS of stopped notes; I have found an article dating 4/2004 in

Hello ppl. I just discovered lilypond; I was quite desperate in trying to write professional music; even the most powerful WYSIWYG editors, as Finale, were at least "cumbersome" to use. The concepts in lilyponds are so powerful and easy to learn that I have rewrote in a few minutes solos and ri
