Re: "Filtering" expressions?

One simple way is to just use the same variable and then make all unwanted symbols invisible... Or else you could use the \tag feature... Just prefix all expressions you want to filter out with "\tag #'vocal" and then do "\removeWithTag #'vocal ...the music..." to filter them out! See "8.2.8 Dif

Pythonization (was Re: Roadmap to lily code)

(Could be of some interest so I keep it on the list) I'm also not sure it's a good idea. If you want python, it would be better to start afresh with a python version of LilyPond, and move speed-critical things to C(++). Then, end-result will be more "pythonic" And in that case? Could you m

I believe that What you're looking for is \compressMusic. Apparently, it works just like \times, but doesn't show the tuplet brackets. I haven't used it, so I don't know. It also might be new to 2.7, since I can't seem to find any mention of it in the manual (2.6 or 2.7). I did find some menti

Since the value of the property should be the actual function itself, you should say: \override RehearsalMark #'Y-offset = #Self_alignment_interface::aligned_on_y_parent (If you say \override BlaBlaBla #'blabla = #'bla, then you assign the name bla as the value) /Mats Graham Percival wr
