emacs mode test file

2008-05-08 Thread James E. Bailey
is there a file that shows all of the pretty color options that the emacs mode shows? I may attempt a nanorc that does something similar, and I'd just like to know what options there are. Rather, I'd like to know what emacs does so I can emulate it somewhat. ___

I would propose the following solution, which automatically adds the white box around every syllable. It works by redefining the function that typesets each LyricText object. To make it work in version 2.10, I copied (and slightly modified) a couple of functions that are predefined in version 2.

I see. Version 2.10 will do this too, if you uncomment the lines \consists "Separating_line_group_engraver" \override BarLine #'transparent = ##t But it's not what I want: I'm specifically trying to get the masking-out behaviour, without having to apply it syllable by syllable. (No account

Thanks for your reply. I went with 2.10.33 as the "stable" version, but if 2.11 is usable, I might try it. Is it possible to have both coexisting on the same system? (Windows XP) I removed the \markup {...} construct from the first line of lyrics and removed Bar_engraver from the Lyrics context.

I was going to say that I didn't see a problem with doing the file without the bar lines in the text and removing the bar engraver, and then I realised that you're using 2.10.33. While I can't speak for that version, in 2.11, it works fine without the workaround. I would highly recommend 2.
