+Phrasing: Indicating the textual underlay of a piece, or

+
+There are distinct ways of specifying the first two (although at

+
+.* TODO before 1.2
+. *
+> Yes. I want ties to tie only notes of the same pitch, so that
+> f < a~ a,> a
+> works as you'd expect it to.
+
+I don't think that's functional, but there is a bug (--jcn):
+Lily will set a tie between the a and the preceeding f.
+. * 1. Can Lily be told where to start numbering?
+Fix: set bar-number to 0 if first bar is an anacrouse?
+. * The timpani part has rests the full first line. Is it possible
+ to force lilypond to print all parts on the first page of the score
+ but use the hara-kiri mechanism on the remaining pages?
+. * do scaled fonts.
+. * profile atom smobs
+. * make ly2dvi test page.
+. * Try to use Killing_cons iso. Pointer_list
+. * make dependencies () a virtual function.
+. * fix Repeated_music_iterator::ok() (constness.)
+. * one big ly2dvi input that includes *all* tests.
+. * Don't use boolean properties (0,1), instead check existence
+of property.
+. * store req -> element, element -> element causes for warnings
+. * junk Text_def, use G_text_item in stead.
+. * junk Script_def
+. * fix partial measures in meaningful way.

+. * How can I specify a chord whose duration is longer than a whole note?
+ \type ChordNames { \chord{ A1*2-min } }
+
+gives me a parse error. And \times doesn't work either. I can't use
+a spacer note. So it seems to be impossible to have long chords of
+general length. Of course, in the example above I can use \breve.
+But what if I want a chord that lasts for 3 whole notes? Or what
+about 2.5 whole notes? Is there a mechanism for getting this kind of
+length?
+
+
+Why does my second extender request get junked in the following:
+
+\score{
+< \notes \relative c''{
+ a4()b()c()d c()d()b()a }
+ \type Lyrics \lyrics {
+ foo1 __ bar2. __ _4 }
+> }
+
+It seems that \cr and \decr don't work any more.
+
+\score{
+ \notes{
+ a \cr b \rc c }
+ \paper{linewidth=-1.;}
+}
+
+Gives me
+
+qq.ly:3:9: warning: can't find (de)crescendo to end:
+ a \cr
+ b \rc c }
+
+
+
+Use of semicolons is still rather confusing. They are obligatory
+after some types of assignments and illegal after others.
+
+ \property foo=bar illegal
+ foo = 3 at top level illegal
+ foo = 3 inside \paper obligatory
+ foo = \notes{ ...} top level illegal
+ foo = \translator{ } in \paper obligatory
+
+As far as I can tell, the sole accomplishment of this syntactic
+irregularity is to keep the user as confused as possible.
+
+
+I was trying to get interstaff beams to work and did this:
+
+\score{
+\type GrandStaff <
+\type Staff=one \notes\relative c'{

+ \translator Staff=one
+ \stemdown

+
+Usually you can get away without having this interlinked structure.
+One piece of information you need when exporting objects to scheme is
+the smob tag for your class. You might store this value (a long) into
+a class static variable, or a file static variable. I'll use a class
+static variable in this example.
+
+I typically use code that works like this (untested code ahead):
+
+class Foo_class {
+ static long *Foo_smob_tag;
+ SCM obj; // representation as a scheme object, description comes later
+}
+
+// call this once on startup
+void init_Foo_class {
+ static scm_smobfuns type_rec;
+
+ type_rec.mark = foo_mark;
+ type_rec.free = foo_free;
+ type_rec.print = foo_display;
+ type_rec.equalp = 0;
+ Foo_class::Foo_smob_tag = new int(scm_new_smob(type_rec));
+}
+
+When you want to export an object to scheme, you put a pointer to the
+object itself in the cdr of the cell, and the tag in the car of the
+cell. The code looks like this:
+
+// Is this a Foo?
+static int
+foo_p(SCM obj)
+{
+ return(SCM_NIMP(obj) && SCM_CAR(obj) == Foo_class::Foo_smob_tag);
+}
+
+// given a Scheme representation, return, a C++ representation
+static Foo_class *
+foo_unbox(SCM obj)
+{
+ return((Foo_class*)SCM_CDR(obj));
+}
+
+// the SCM representation of the object is stored inside itself
+// this will become useful when destructor gets called
+static SCM
+foo_box(Foo_class *foo)
+{
+ SCM_DEFER_INTS;
+ SCM_NEWCELL(foo->obj);
+ SCM_SETCAR(foo->obj, Foo_class::Foo_smob_tag);
+ SCM_SETCDR(foo->obj, (SCM)foo);
+ SCM_ALLOW_INTS;
+ return foo->obj;
+}
+
+> C++ determines life time, so what is the strategy?
+
+What happens now when the destructor gets called? Lets set the cdr to
+NULL, and then check for that in all of the primitive functions that
+use your smob. We'll call this notion 'live'; a scheme object is
+'live' if the C++ representation still exists, it's dead if the C++
+object is gone. You can still have references to dead objects in
+scheme code; it's just an error to use them. This idea is stolen from
+Emacs's handling of buffers ('buffer-live-p' and friends).
+
+Add another function, foo_live_p:
+
+static int
+foo_live_p(SCM obj)
+{
+ return(foo_p(obj) && SCM_CDR(obj) != NULL);
+}
+
+In you destructor, you need to do:
+
+~Foo_class()
+{
+ SCM_CDR(this->obj, NULL);
+}
+
+When writing new primitives, now just check foo_live_p().
+
+I hope the above helps,
