Re: [oll-user] OLLib renaming

[Urs L. <ul...@op...>]

Update:

how to organize the directory structure?

We'll have one root directory, and part of the 'installation'
requirements is to make this root dir available to LilyPond.

I see two set-ups how to make the contents available to .ly documents:
(I'll write 'OLLIB' as a placeholder for a to-be-agreed-upon name)


\include "OLLIB.ily" for the full lib -> would be natural, but:
\include "tb/curvestoolbox.ily" is less expressive than
\include "OLLIB/curvestoolbox.ily". And
\include "includes/stylesheets/a4-lied.ily" is much less expressive than
\include "OLLIB/includes/stylesheets/a4-lied.ily"

So I propose to set up the root dir like:
- documentation
- examples
- templates
- OLLIB
  |- includes
  |- tb (see below)
     |- curves (etc.)
  |- full.ily
  |- curves.ily (etc. for loading individual sublibraries)

full.ily loads the complete library (but not examples, templates and
includes)-
curves.ily etc. load partial libraries
tb/ contains the code for the partial libraries, i.e. there is one
subfolder of tb/ for each .ily file

So the user can write forexample:
\include "OLLIB/full.ily"
\include "OLLIB/curves.ily"
\include "OLLIB/includes/scoreblocks/piano4hd.ily"

Examples and templates are items that aren't usually included but opened
and/or copied directly, so they can remain at the root level.

Any comments, disapproval, better ideas?
