No idea why. Whatever I do Terminal replies with : cannot execute binary file. Dear all, and in particular Mojca Miklavec and Jean-Pierre Delange, who reacted to my first call for help, I think I have solved my problem. Somehow I managed to get Lilypond working from Terminal. Then I placed the ConTeXt-example with the LilyPond filter that I tried to compile in the same directory als the lilypond binary. Compiling it, as usual, from TeXShop it still did not start LilyPond and the .pdf still had: "[[output file missing" where the musical example should have been. However, compiling the file from Terminal did work. Best regards, Robert Blackstone

ConTeXt and LilyPond problem
by Robert Blackstone 02 Jul '16

02 Jul '16

Dear All, I am trying to get the combination of ConTeXt and LilyPond working. I copied the example that I found on http://wiki.contextgarden.net/LilyPond , changing the setups a little (I don't have the font Adobe Jenson Pro). Processing it with mkiv from april this year and earlier produces a pdf with both zapf texts and in between the text: [[output file missing. The log-file says: --------------------- t-filter . cached output file 'lilytemp/LilyPond-ConTeXt-example-27-06-16-templilypond-0.pdf' missing. Rerunning filter sh: lilypond: command not found t-filter > file 'lilytemp/LilyPond-ConTeXt-example-27-06-16-templilypond-0.pdf' cannot be found --------------------- Indeed there is no file lilytemp/LilyPond-ConTeXt-example-27-06-16-templilypond-0.pdf . With LilyPond.app itself, using TeXShop as the editor, I have no problems. (But I have never been able to get it working from Terminal, generating only messages like "cannot execute binary file" and "Permission denied" even after running sudo chmod u+x .) What can I do about it? Thanks in advance for tips and suggestions. Best regards, Robert Blackstone

issue with French patterns
by Pablo Rodriguez 01 Jul '16

01 Jul '16

Dear list, I have the following sample: \setuplanguage[fr][patterns={fr, agr}] \mainlanguage[fr] \setupbodyfont[dejavu] \starttext \hyphenatedword{χαλεπά éligibilité} \stoptext I cannot compile it with latest beta (or with stable from 2015.05.18 12:26). The error message reads: error on line 2 in file a.tex: ! Conflicting pattern ignored Is this a bug or is there no way to load French and ancient Greek hyphenation patterns? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

I will try to find a working solution with a float. If I cannot solve my problem I will post a minimal example, although I think that to show what I would like to do but cannot do I will need a fairly large example. Do I understand correctly that you also have LilyPond.app installed? Best regards, Robert

http://tug.org/interviews/arora.html Nice interview especially (at least for me) the answer to the question Your use of TeX, or rather ConTeXt, seems a bit out of the ordinary. In any case, what is your motivation for writing-up and presenting/publishing what you do with TeX? -- luigi

Dear Hans In the annex you can find a table of character frequency for Portuguese. Is it possible to add it in a future beta? TIA Marcus Vinicius -- Todas as coisas fatigam o corpo, salvo a música, que não fatiga nem o corpo nem seus membros, por ser descanso da alma, primavera do coração, distração do aflito, entretenimento do solitário, e viático do viajante.

ConTeXt and LilyPond, another question
by Robert Blackstone 30 Jun '16

30 Jun '16

Dear all, Inserting LilyPond scores or snippets into a ConTeXt file gives very nice results, better than inserting LilyPond pdf's as floats. So far however, using floats has the advantage that they can be given a caption, that ConTeXt gives them a number, that one gets a list of floats in the ToC, that they can be indexed etc. etc., things that, as far as I can see, are missing when entering LilyPond code directly into the TeX-file and use the filter. Does any of you know how this handicap can be overcome? Or else, would it be possible either to add these facilities to the filter or create some other means for providing the LilyPond examples with a caption and a number? Best regards, Robert Blackstone
