Hi, I do semantic web researcher for MINDSWAP , and I'm very interested in using Lilypond for one of my projects. My central problem however, is that in order for my to use Lilypond within my project, I'd need to have it represented in XML syntax (check out the

I noticed that the flat symbol produced by Lilypond has something strange: the upper part of the vertical line is thicker than the lower part. Is this intentional or is it a bug? Thanks, Antonio ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http

Another puzzle: I have measure with a string double stop on a single pitch: \score{ \notes\relative c'{ as2 a } \paper{} } On the second note I want two stems; one going up and one going down. Is there a simple solution or do I have to use "voices"? I've checked the docs but I'm not sur

Re: ps output looks like junk

Yes, this is a remaining problem about the cygwin installation. Since the generated fonts end up in separate directories for each user, it's hard to remove them automatically in the installation scripts. However, Colin used RedHat where this shouldn't be a problem. Also, the command 'kpsewhich f

RE: ps output looks like junk

I had once this problem because my Lilypond setup (using cygwin) causes the generated fonts to be put in a subdirectory of my working directory (i.e. .../scores/dpi600). So, even though I ran the 'clean-fonts.sh' script, the generated fonts remained. Deleting the dpi600 directory forces the gene

Hello, this week I tried the cygwin port of the new version 1.6.4 with a little song. Since the letters of the lyrics overlap each other, I assume that I have to set some flag to change the spacing rule (from note-length proportional to (maximum) word-width). Is there any flag for archieving suf

Consider the following short excerpt: \score{ \notes\relative c{ r4 b''4( \< \! )c2 | R1 | } \paper{} } I want to have a hairpin crescendo from the b to the c and then a decresendo on the c to the barline. If I use the "r1" rest I can do this but it causes two problems; 1) the hairpin conti

Ok, I've tried placing \translator{ \StaffContext minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-4 . 4) } in my paper block to adjust all my staves. A couple time I got an extra, empty staff in my score. On other attempts I got "parse errors". Here is my \paper block without the vertical adjustment. Where do
