using footnotes on lyrics with lilypond-book

Hi, here is a small how-to for others who try to do the same. I had to add footnotes for lyrics in my song book, here is how I did it: In the .ly file: First set encoding to TeX, so the extra tex commands will not be counted as space: \encoding "Tex" To add footnotes, you need to put the lyri

Mats, You make the assumption that he's installed the RPM. Unless I'm misreading this, he does not know how exactly to install the RPM file itself. Daniel: Technically, how you install it depends on which distribution you use, but usually 'rpm -i ' will work. If it says you need to install other p

Try \lyricmode{ Some text with "(pa" -- ren -- the -- "sis)" ...} i.e. include it in double quotes. /Mats Basil Crow wrote: Hi list, Dumb question: How do you use an open parenthesis in lyrics? I'm using "\lyricmode {" to begin my lyrics. Thanks, Basil _

Re: using LilyPond

Since you installed an RPM, you have a compiled version of the program, so it is just to go ahead and read the Tutorial (available at www.lilypond.org and probably also somewhere on your machine, I don't know where it's installed by the RPM). /Mats daniel boronka wrote: I just finished downl

Why not take a look at the example templates in the manual, especially the one for SATB vocal score should be very close to what you want. /Mats Roman Käppeler wrote: Hi all, sorry I am too stupid to setup a Choir-Staff in which I have a "Tenor I" and "Tenor II" in one Line and a "Bass I" a

Windows native and jEdit

I copy this to lilypond-devel as well, because I'm interested in the developers' opinion, especially about the third step. To use point-and-click with jEdit and Adobe Reader in the native build of lilypond: 1. create a jump.bsh file somewhere, possibly in c:\prog\jEdit\macros\Misc\: // COPY

Defining custom paper sizes

Hi, Using 2.4.6, I'm trying to define a specific (non-standard) paper size with a PNG output. It seems that the PNG output is affected by the: #(set-paper-size "a4") command, which only takes predefined standard paper sizes. I've tried using hsize & vsize yet,

Well, in order to avoid possible confusion, I'm not an expert at all. On MacOSX I'm not able to see the dvi too, but the output on ps is ok for me. I also used dvipdf instead of dvips to convert directly to pdf the dvi. I made only very simple tests, but it worked. But when I try to apply th

Global font change in 2.5.x

In version 2.5.25: How can I change the font name globally? I mean setting "Times" for all the fonts (and let lilypond choose the bold, italic etc. variations) Thanks, Bert ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org

Choir Staffs

Hi all, sorry I am too stupid to setup a Choir-Staff in which I have a "Tenor I" and "Tenor II" in one Line and a "Bass I" and "Bass II" in the other line. Beams in Tenor I/Bass I should be up and beams in Tenor II/BassII should be directed down. Both TenorI/II, BassI/II should have lyrics. Does
