Re: feta.ttf?

If you are just interested by the font and a WYSIWYG editor, you should try musescore. If I'm not wrong this GNU program uses Feta/Emmentaler. It's not Finale but it's free ;) Of course, you'll not have all the feature set of lilypond. Lasconic Albert Frantz-2 wrote:

Re: midi keyboard input

Another way is to use MuseScore : http://www.musescore.org Lilypond output is quite beta for the moment, but to get the pitches it should be ok I guess. MIDI input is working on windows and linux. You can even use a prerelease for ubuntu : http://prereleases.musescore.org/linux/ M Watts wrot

stacked markup with parenthesis

Hi all ! I'm looking for a way to display a text on several lines with parenthesis around the line (no bracket, round parenthesis). I tried \columns and \center-align. That's ok to stack texts but how can I put parenthesis around ? (like \bracket does for squared bracket). Thks a lot ! Example :

Hi ! I also try to stack tensions and I want to put round bracket around the stack[1]. Do you use this notation too ? I don't manage to print the round bracket :-( I'm curious about your exception list :) Do you mind sharing it ? Thks ! Lasconic [1] http://www.nabble.com/stacked-m

Re: Canorus

You can also try MuseScore on Windows and Linux. The lilypond output is decent and the community is very alive. The development team is quite responsive as well. http://www.musescore.org Btw, can Musescore be added to the FAQ ? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Canorus-tp

Re: Parenthesizing chord names

That's great! Thanks a lot! Just a question, do you think it's possible to have left/right as a param instead of defining a scheme function for each one ? For example, you might want to have more option like use [ instead of ( and then you need to create two others functions and new LBC/RBC and i

Re: Notation Editor with MIDI

Thanks :) The lilypond export, although in beta, is a lot more solid than the import, consider it alpha. Lilypond syntax is very versatile, making it a powerful tool. But it's hard to parse as well. David Stocker wrote: > > While MuseScore's ability to import *.ly files is a nice feature, the
