[lily4jedit-user] How to tell LilyPond Tool where LilyPond is in Snow Leopard?

[Seth W. <haz...@gm...>]

This will sound like a dumb question, but when I click the "LilyPond" icon
in Jedit and choose run LilyPond, I get an error that says "Cannot run
program "/Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/lilypond (in
directory "/Applications"): error=2 No such file or directory"

I upgraded to LilyPond 2.app.  But I can't seem to figure out how to tell
Jedit and LilyPond tool where to look for the program.

Can somebody help me?

Bad syntax - that was it. I realized that was the case, but didn't know
enough about the syntax to verify - it compiled and displayed even with the
bad syntax (missing the c' after relative)
I suspect your regex pattern matching is a bit overly sensitive.

the dockable pdf viewer does not update automatically after the piano is
used. I run lilypond again and then redisplay the viewer. Very very fast of
course for just a few notes.

Thanks very much for this great tool!

I hope someone with Snow Leopard can answer this. Look at

Notes are added only if the structure of file is correct, like:

\relative c' {

[lily4jedit-user] Virtual piano doesn't work with Snow Leopard?

[B2 <b_...@ie...>]

Latest Snow Leopard. I just installed Lilypond, jEdit, and the lilypond
plug-in. The Virtual piano displays, I can hear midi notes when I
mouse-click on a key, or when I type, but no notes are added to the text
file. The button panel does work to insert braces, rests and the like.

Any ideas? I'm a Mac hacker, python/java guy, but a noob to all these new
tools.

Re: [lily4jedit-user] LilyPondTool refuses to honour PATH

[Bertalan F. (LilyPondTool) <lil...@or...>]

I committed a fix for this. Current limitation is you can't set python 
path differently if you really need to run .py scripts and it assumes 
that if a script ends with .py then it must be run using python.

For the "french localizations", all characters are perfectly displayed now

[lily4jedit-user] ANN BETA 2: LilyPondTool 2.12.892 available for testing

[Bertalan F. (LilyPondTool) <lil...@or...>]

Hi all,

I released new Release Candidate version of LilyPondTool (for jEdit).
Please test it. It is mainly a bug fix release, with many bugs fixed,
most notably
- the PDF preview problems
- the French localization problems
- document wizard localizations
- MIDI input problems (dupicate notes)

Please get it from
http://lilypondtool.organum.hu/fileadmin/lilypondtool/lily4jedit-2.12.892.zip
and unzip it to your jEdit settings directory, that is $HOME/.jedit, or
~/.jedit or c:\documents and settings\YOU\.jedit depending on your OS.

Please report me any problems you find.

I ask my kind localizers, to check the messages properties files for
changes, and send me the new files or changed keys.

Thank you,

Bert

I thought that PATH and PATHEXT tuning, plus the association of .py
files with the Python interpreter shipped with Lilyond, were done by
LilyPond installer on Windows, which would be enough to make lilypond
and convert-ly executables like on a Unix OS.  Anyway, current LPT
behavior is certainly more robust, as those three settings can be easily
altered in a way that breaks at least the Python scripts.

I hope my error reports are precise enough to make it possible to solve
this issue by just looking at Java/JEdit reference manuals.  If nobody
else is going to fix this, I might have a look in several months after
having learnt a bit of Java (I'm not a frequent LPT user, I was asking
this from a question on Lily French-speaking list).

I agree, though unfortunately I very rarely run linux, so usually I have 
no idea about these bugs.
Historically convert-ly had to be run using python, and it must be run 
like that on windows.

Very good idea; however, this might orthogonal to allowing make LPT rely
on the PATH to run LilyPond binaries.

Another way that I always wanted to investigate would be to have a
post-install script that would automatically setup LilyPondTool
correctly (and possibly even some custom jEdit options such as
perspective settings). Bertalan once suggested that it could be made
optional (such as a "auto-configure" menu item).

[lily4jedit-user] LilyPondTool refuses to honour PATH

[John M. <joh...@gm...>]

Hello,

I would like to make LilyPondTool find all LilyPond binaries only by
relying on the PATH, so as long as I don't excessively play with PATH I
run the same LilyPond version whether I call lilypond or convert-ly from
JEdit or from a terminal.  For this purpose, I set as empty the field
"Path to LilyPond binary" in LPT settings.

However, it seems impossible to make this work, as I get error messages
that say "Cannot run program "/lilypond"", or when I try to run
convert-ly from the toolbar button "Cannot run program "/python"".

Even worse, if I set the correct path to my LilyPond installation in LPT
settings, that is "usr/local/bin", I get an error "Cannot run program
"/usr/local/bin/python"" when trying to run convert-ly from the toolbar.

By the way, I don't understand why LilyPondTool forces using Python to
call convert-ly, which is not the good way to go if LilyPond was
installed from a package on lilypond.org, because in this case
convert-ly is a wrapper written in shell on GNU/Linux.

Note that I don't want to mess with making symlinks; I think that LPT
should work almost out-of-the-box (i.e. works immediately after having
configured LPT settings), and for this purpose honouring the PATH and
shebangs of different wrapper scripts (which differ depending on whether
LilyPond has been installed by local compilation, the distro package
manager or lilypond.org package) is the good way to go.

Best,
John

[Joshua K. <jos...@gm...>]

Hi Bert!

Nice hearing from you!

Quick reply:
1. I thought I was sending this email to the lilypond user group, but guess
it was nice ending in this mailing list too :)
2. Would be nice to know how I can work with you on that, a lilypond
webservice would be much needed :P
3. Yes, size can be configured - need to change the scaling, canvas sizes.
4. If you are targeting modern browsers, may suggest you to look at Mozilla
Thunderhead for the editor (based on cavas). That is their UI framework
behind the very interesting Mozilla Bespin https://bespin.mozilla.com/ (code
in the cloud, collaborative programming)

Hi Joshua,

Definitely a good idea for a lilypond web service, which I'm actually 
currently working on.
It should be combined with something like 
http://valentin.villenave.info/lilypond/
(Unfortunately the CodePress syntax highlighting doesn't work in Chrome, 
the Editarea doesn't handle multiline comments correctly)

But the score is definitely too large, please make it half as large as 
it is now (or add an option to change).

[lily4jedit-user] A Simple Lilypond Note Writer

[Joshua K. <zz...@us...>]

Hi all,

I was playing around with canvas (html 5- most modern browsers are
compatible except IE) when I thought of quickly creating a frontend to make
note inputs for lilypond easier (in the style of a music notation software,
but not quite really).

Here's the link: http://jabtunes.com/notation/

Right now this is pretty much basic, but shows you a blank staff, click some
notes in it and it generates relative lilypond code. With some keyboard
shortcuts like numbers for durations, + - for accidentals, one might find it
useful to easier to create a score, with the help of an editor(eg. copy and
pasting notes into lilypondtool). There are some other experimental
features, like saving the score on your browser, dynamics, chords (press
c)...

Side notes: these notes(excuse the pun) are rendered with javascript using
Lilypond vector fonts at runtime. This also kind of works on my android
phone, anyone with an iPhone could try it too. I imagine it would be cool if
it can be hooked up to Lilypondy or google wave one day.

Feel free to play with it, hack it, modify it or drop me any comments.

Cheers,
Joshua Koo

The new PDF preview makes perfect sense to me. The integrated preview
allows to quickly see what your music looks like, while its rendering
engine is not really convenient for quality-printing anyway.
If you configure an external PDF viewer (e.g. Adobe Reader, Foxit or
Sumatra) in the LilyPondTool options panel, you can even use a
keyboard shortcut to open it.

Anyway, I've added that to the tracker as:

Re: [lily4jedit-user] what happened to print option from pdf viewer?

[Bertalan F. (LilyPondTool) <lil...@or...>]

Because the pdf viewer we used couldn't be docked, and had several 
annoying bugs, we sort of rewrote that functionality. That's why we 
removed the print functionality.
Also, the JPedal viewer sometimes renders the pdf incorrectly, so it is 
more safe to use Adobe Reader to print.
Though I will look into putting printing back to jPedal, but perhaps 
that will not be easy.

I just upgraded my lilypond/jedit/lilytool and find I can only preview 
pdf files now, while in the older version I was able to print those pdf 
files. Now I cannot print them anymore, I have to open them in yet 
another app to view/print the file? what sense does this make? Please

[lily4jedit-user] Basic Operation Problems

[Kale G. <ka...@te...>]

I'm having trouble getting the fundamental elements of LilypondTool  
to work. I am unable to use the PDF preview. Also, the external PDF  
viewer doesn't work. It seems to me to be a problem with my settings  
in options, but I've fooled around with them to no avail. The file  
path that terminal gives for my pdf viewer is correctly entered in  
the plug-in options window (the PDF viewer is called Skim).

When attempting to use PDF preview, the screen is blank.

When attempting to use an external pdf viewer, the counsel says this:

"/Users/Kale/Documents/Lilypond/thewizardswitness.pdf" &
/Applications>

with this error message:

java.lang.NullPointerException
	at console.StreamThread.flushLine(StreamThread.java:217)
	at console.StreamThread.run(StreamThread.java:130)

I'm not incredibly computer savvy but can usually figure out basic  
things. This one has me stumped.

[lily4jedit-user] Lilypond tools troubles

[Fabrice L. <lam...@li...>]

Hello,

I've been using lilypond tools for a couple of times now, but today, I changed an option, don't ask me wich one, I don't remember (I wanted to isable the automatic code completion feature) and it crashed.
After relaunching jedit, lilypond tools refuse to load.

I tried uninstalling / reinstalling lilypond tools, unintsalling / reinstalling jedit, uninstalling / reinstalling java, looked in windows registry without luck.
My guess are the plugin setting are kept somewhere in an unknown place.

Is there a way to reset lilypond tools to its default setting ?

I'm using jedit 4.3 pre 16, and lilypond tools 2.12-r2, on Windows Vista.

Thanks for your reply.

Bonjour MonAmi, :)

you have two solutions:

add an argument to LilyPond invokation (I believe it's -dmidi-extension "midi")

upgrade your LilyPondTool version, since I think this bug has been addressed.

[lily4jedit-user] Barchecking confused by exclamation marks

[Valentin V. <v.v...@gm...>]

Greetings everyone, hi Bert,

open a blank lilypond file in jEdit and type

r16 c c c c8 r r16 c c c |

when you enter the pipe character, the barcheck popup appears and says "3/4".

Now type instead

r16 c! c c c!8 r r16 c! c c |

this time the barcheck popup says "5/8" :-)

Cheers,
Valentin
