Re: Question from a Mac user who no longer can use Lilypond and Frescobaldi

Running Frescobaldi on Mac OS 15.5 - no problems. In Frescobaldi under Preferences I choose Lilypond 2.25.27 and it installs flawlessly. Lilypond is then located here: /Users/[USER]/Library/Application Support/frescobaldi/frescobaldi/lilypond-binaries /Mats-Olof > 21 juli 2025 kl. 20:56 skrev

Re: Using LilyPond in Swedish – but with English-style B, Bb, and B#

Hi! Well, I’m not so interested in what you think is a "point". All I am asking for is good practice to override code in LilyPond in a way that doesn’t interfere with the codebase. Is it possible to discuss that instead of reasons? I think all of us interested in using LilyPond will learn from

Re: Using LilyPond in Swedish – but with English-style B, Bb, and B#

Hi, this question goes far back in history, as several people in this thread have pointed out. As someone who is well-educated with a Master of Fine Arts in music, trained choir conductor, and with studies in music psychology (among other things), I’m well aware of the historical facts. M

Re: Using LilyPond in Swedish – but with English-style B, Bb, and B#

Hi! Yes, that is a good idea. I can also change in define-note-names.scm to achieve want I want but then I have to do that every time a new version of Lilypond is released. But then I can use \language ”svenska” which is what I want of everything else except h -b. What I really want is this o

Re: Using LilyPond in Swedish – but with English-style B, Bb, and B#

Hi! There’s a long story behind why we have both “H” and “B” for the same note. It’s not my intention to educate anyone about that history—I’m simply trying to find a solution where I can combine solid Swedish tradition, which is based on the German system, with the English one. Nowadays, many

Using LilyPond in Swedish – but with English-style B, Bb, and B#

Hi! I’d like to use LilyPond with Swedish note names, but with one exception: I want to treat the notes h, hess, and hiss as b, bess, and biss instead—just like in English notation. The same goes for chord names: I’d like to write B, Bb, and B# rather than H, B, and so on. Is there a go

On my Macs it works well to click on the app to launch it. A click on a ly-files opens the app too but not loading the file. Have to click on it once more. Another minor error is when quitting. Fredcobaldi quits but gives me an error that it quit unexspectsly. Orherwise no error in both inte

Re: Frescobaldi?

I use Frescobaldi on all of my Macs with slightly different operating systems. It works well, but I'm concerned about the future. Unfortunately, I'm not a programmer, so I can't contribute with coding. This is exciting, perhaps a bit too exciting, considering how we'll be able to continue with L

Re: Lilypond Terminates on Start-Up

run Frescobaldi on Mac. The only thing is that I have to click on the Frescobaldi icon in dock when I start up the program. Maybe there are other issues that I’m not aware of, but for me it works great. Med vänlig hälsning / Kind regards Mats-Olof Liljegren e-pro Oskarsvägen 11B 702 14 Örebro
