Looking at the implementation, it turns out that the check to see if the bracket should be printed compares the width of the bracket with the width of the number. So, one ugly workaround to get the b
Well, since charsets issue is my hobby ... I can write a short explanation (try to... my shortage of english vocabulary could be an issue) After having defined a 128 character table (0 -127 on 8 bits

I recommend you to upgrade to the latest stable version, 2.10.12, which includes lots of bug fixes compared to 2.10.0. Among others, I seem to recall some bugs related to extender lines. /Mats Vivian
Thanks for the additional suggestions. The variation of your polyphony syntax was close, but the two stems did not merge together because of the offset from the smaller notehead on the alternate pitc

I hope you have logged off and on again since you installed LilyPond. Start a command prompt, enter the command set PATH and send me a copy of the result. (You can copy and paste from the command pro
Then, well, who can help me?? Frédéric 2006/12/15, Mats Bengtsson <address@hidden>: I'm certainly not any expert in Scheme coding for LilyPond. Please always keep the discussion on the mailing list
I tried to change the first line to \documentclass[a4paper,twocolumn,landscape]{article} and couldn't notice any problems. If you use dvips and ps2pdf, I hope you remember to add the flag dvips -t la
When Maurits sent his question, I suddenly realized that it looked familiar, and I found Matevz' old email, which did contain a full example that was easy to play around with. The solution to both of
Thanks very much for your help, Mats! Typesetting music with LilyPond is fun. I can't do it right, but it is still fun. (And actually it wasn't fun with other, commercial programs). It is perhaps dif

Right! This first example of the tutorial is somewhat idealized to hide unnecessary complications. I hope you haven't got stuck there but rather kept reading and experimenting with the program. (If y
