Does this mean that you now basically have frozen the syntax for 2.2? (in that
case I'll perhaps start convert-ly:ing a bunch of old Mutopia scores: this
might also catch some convert-ly bugs)

So now it's time to be picky :) I have been checking some bugs I reported
earlier. A number of them have not yet been fully fixed:
1. The "piece" header is written in smallcaps. I can't recall that I got any
answer of why it should, so perhaps it is a bug after all.
Example:
\score {\notes b \header {piece="Allegro"} }
2. The following gives a "Programming Error" message. It should just be a
normal warning.
\score { \new Lyrics \lyrics { a -- } }
3. I reported a layout problem on feb 19, which was only partially fixed:
When there are multiple staves, of which one ends in a \bar "||":
\score {
\new StaffGroup \notes <<
\new Staff {c4 c c c | c c c c \bar "||" c c c c}
\new Staff {c4 c c c | c c c c }
>>
\paper{}
}
Now the second staff ends like
| |
| |
--------| |
--------| |
--------| |
--------| |
--------| |
which should be
| |
| |
--------|-|
--------|-|
--------|-|
--------|-|
--------|-|
4. You still get error/warning messages, suggesting that something is wrong,
if there is no midi output in the \score block:
lilypond: warning: no LilyPond output found for `foo'
Running latex...
Running dvips...lilypond: error: `dvips' failed (status 1)
lilypond: error: The error log is as follows:
/tmp/tmpntykwGdvips.errorloglilypond: warning: Failed to make PS file. Rerun
with --verbose for a trace.
MIDI output to `foo.midi'...
5. Repeat barlines are engraved to the left of the key signature. My feeling
is that it should be the other way around. Am I wrong?
\score { \notes {\key f\major a1 \break \repeat "volta" 2 {a1} }}
6. The autobeaming problem I reported yesterday:
\notes {
b16 b <<{b8 b b16 r} \\ {b8 b b16 r}>> b b b s s4 |
b16 b <<{b8 b b16} \\ {b8 b b16}>> r b b b % <-- these notes should be beamed
}
Please respond, at least with something like "this is not a bug" or "we will
not fix this"..
thanks,
Erik
