It has something to do with your use of \autochange, you're probably

Hi all,
I am having problems getting vim word completion to
lilypond files.
I hit ctrl+N and get very few choices to complete.
I have checked the file lilypond-words.vim and it is
full of choices.
Just to check what is going on I renamed
lilypond-words and lilypond-words.vim to other names.

The crashes went away (tried with 2.6) when I changed

In other words, I removed the RemoveEmptyStaffContext. Tried to remove
the \context part, but that resulted in an error

I just installed 2.6.3 from source on Debian Sarge/Sid. I didn't have any

Hello All,
I'd like to thank Han-Wen for his work in implementing the new figured bass scheme in Lilypond. There was a lot of hard work put into this which has resulted in an easy way in which figuredbass numbers and extender lines can be added and formatted.
I would encourage anyone who uses start

Hello,
I hope you can help me. I'm trying to typeset a piano score - Gershwin
actually :).
I've come across a bar where the first chord slurs into the next,
which LilyPond handles fine. This second chord then ties to another
identical chord. However, the top note of this chord breaks off into a

Would it not make more sense to use just plain old

What would it take to alter this in the code, if I wanted to do so for
my own version?

Lilypond can do everything and lilypond is for everybody.
Yet, I don't seem to be part of this equation somehow.
I am getting very frustrated to get Lilypond to do the
simplest thing, to create a PDF file with 4 pages of empty
piano sheet music that I can use to jot notes on. That

I just started using LilyPond to notate drumset

and ":|")

The problem is that you have declared a Staff context within
a Voice context, which doesn't make sense. Just do
\score{
<<
\context Voice = sop {
\sopNotes
}
\lyricsto "sop" \new Lyrics \sopLyric
>>
}
or
\score{

\new Staff {

thanks for your replies. SInce I imagine I will need add some point to
deal with the more complex \lyricsto command, do you have
an idea about the second problem where it doesn't recognize
the declared Voice ?

I already knew that \addlyrics had very limited applicability, but
it seems that it's even more limited to only handle simple examples

you can use :
