-There are a few things that the convert-ly cannot handle. Here's a list of limitations
-that the community has complained about.
-
-This bug report structure has been chosen because convert-ly has a structure that doesn't
-allow to smoothly implement all needed changes. Thus this is just a wishlist, placed
-here for reference.
-
-1.6->2.0:
- Doesn't always convert figured bass correctly, specifically things like {< >}. Mats' comment on working around this:
- To be able to run convert-ly
- on it, I first replaced all occurencies of '{<' to some dummy like '{#'
- and similarly I replaced '>}' with '&}'. After the conversion, I could
- then change back from '{ #' to '{ <' and from '& }' to '> }'.
- Doesn't convert all text markup correctly. In the old markup syntax,
- it was possible to group a number of markup commands together within parentheses, e.g.
- -#'((bold italic) "string")
- This will incorrectly be converted into
- -\markup{{\bold italic} "string"}
- instead of the correct
- -\markup{\bold \italic "string"}
-2.0->2.2:
- Doesn't handle \partcombine
- Doesn't do \addlyrics => \lyricsto, this breaks some scores with multiple stanzas.
-2.0->2.4:
- \magnify isn't changed to \fontsize.
- - \magnify #m => \fontsize #f, where f = 6ln(m)/ln(2)
- remove-tag isn't changed.
- - \applymusic #(remove-tag '. . .) => \keepWithTag #'. . .
- firstpagenumber isn't changed.
- - firstpagenumber no => printfirstpagenumber = ##f
- Line breaks in header strings aren't converted.
- - \\\\ as line break in \header strings => \markup \center-align <
- "First Line" "Second Line" >
- Crescendo and decrescendo terminators aren't converted.
- - \rced => \!
- - \rc => \!
-2.2->2.4:
- \turnOff (used in \set Staff.VoltaBracket = \turnOff) is not properly converted.
-2.4.2->2.5.9
- \markup{ \center-align <{ ... }> } should be converted to:
- \markup{ \center-align {\line { ... }} }
- but now, \line is missing.
-2.4->2.6
- Special LaTeX characters such as $~$ in text are not converted to UTF8.
interfaces is quite unlikely; be prepared to tweak scheme code
manually.
