The #lilypond channel IRC is a public space. I've used it for communicating with a GSoC student in the past. Here is a nice little article on the subject: https://drewdevault.com/2015/11/01/Please-stop-using-slack.html. It's a little old. Given that LilyPond is a Gnu project it certainly makes

Portable Lilypond?

Hi! First time in this group, thank you all so much for helpful info! My Question: I use portableapps on a flash drive for much of my work, is there a version on Lilypond that could work in that environment? I saw Musescore or some such, but would like to go with what I know even if I only know

Lines to edges of \center-column

2017-04-22 Thread caagr98
Is there some way to make a center-column draw lines from slightly outside the text to the edges of the column (see example)? In this specific case, I have both English and Japanese names for stuff, and without those lines, I think it's a bit unclear exactly what part the Japanese refers to.

For some reason, it seems I can't refer to a variable directly after defining it. As soon as I do /anything/ else, it works, but `foo={...} \foo` gives errors. ``` $ cat bug.ly \version "2.18.2" foo = {c' c' c' c'} % bar = {d' d' d' d'} % {e' e' e' e'} % #foo \foo $ lilypond bug.ly GNU LilyPond

That's certainly a possibility, it's not working too well. I have to do the alignment manually, and I can't change the line style. Also, it's a bit buggy: putting box-drawers after kanji works fine, but if it's after a kana, it's not selectable, and it has a different width. There are also smal

I did some further work on it. It looks pretty great, IMO. It works with left- and right-aligning, too. No scaling horizontally (just 1sp margins), but it automatically scales vertically. ``` #(define (expand-add pair n) (cons (- (car pair) n) (+ (cdr pair) n))) #(define (expand-mul mul pair)
