For the record, there's no need to add the map file to any config file, since LilyPond explicitly asks for the map file when calling dvips. /Mats Sterling Sympatico wrote: Hi Mats, I read the link you gave me... I installed the latest ec-font package from lilypond, added "Map ec-mftrace.map

Neato!! I was putting the half note interval first but didn't think of using << >>. I am not sure of what the \\ does, though. It worked! Thanks again. Sterling MacNay On Wed, Jun 22, 2005 at 10:10:41AM +0200, Mats Bengtsson wrote: > How about > << \times 2/3 {c4 d e} \\ 2 >> > >/Mats >

2005-06-22 Thread Mats Bengtsson
You didn't mention which version of LilyPond you use, but even if you use 2.4.x, it might be worth looking at the manual of version 2.5.x, since that manual has been significantly improved and is mostly relevant also for version 2.4. For example, you can take a look at http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.5

Hi Mats, I didn't know this (the 2.5 manual would apply to 2.4). I do run 2.4 but will start using the 2.5 manual. Your syntax for the triplet over half notes was very much appreciated. I had everything except the <<>> and the order of the notes correct. The manual is extremely valuable to me.
