Re: Choral lyrics assistance, please.

I might just be adding to the noise level, but my quick-n-dirty workaround to multiple verses that follow refrains is to paste in a bunch of empty quotes - one pair per syllable. And once you have the set for verse 2 (verse 1 will have the refrain, of course), you just paste the whole set of quote

Thanks for taking a look. Running from the command prompt when I get a truncated log file is an acceptable workaround for me. I'll leave it to the list's judgment whether to add this to the bug list or not. Thanks again, Jay On Jan 29, 2008 8:44 AM, Mats Bengtsson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Re: alto stems up, tenor stems down

2007-12-28 Thread Jay Ricketts

Re: Win XP Notepad-related lilypond bugs

Point taken on editor options. Personally, I'm fond of SpfSourceEdit. This is still a bug, as long as LP continues to invoke Notepad as its default win editor. Will it get promoted to the bug list, or should I post it there? daf On Dec 12, 2007 3:11 PM, Ole Schmidt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >
