Hi Bill,

https://github.com/openlilylib

Having cloned the git repository, here are the instructions for use:

https://github.com/openlilylib/oll-core/wiki/Basic-Usage

You need oll-core, oll-misc, and snippets at the least.

Openlilylib is not core lilypond, but it is indispensable. The \shapeII function is powerful and after a while you get to know what numbers are needed. I use that function constantly.

I am fairly sure you need lilypond 2.19 to use OLL currently.

As you get into this, please note you need to use the module.ily versions of the code, not the old definitions.ily versions.

Clone it anywhere you like, then add the path to your lilypond include path.

I am not a programmer, but I am trying to understand the include path.   Say I clone here C:\openLilyLib\.   Then I want to use some files in snippets; and I include the path C:\openLilyLib\snippets\.   Would that include path give me access to all the files and subfiles in snippets?   Would setting the path to C:\openLilyLib\in the environmental variables do anything for this?     This and any thing you may add to this topic would be useful to me.   So far Google has not cleared this up for me.

Thank you, ƒg

Andrew

In trying to follow along with this list I was unable to get to my root directory (linux mint 18.?) even though I have admin privileges. using locate and find command in terminal did not come up with

package.ily or oll-core.  I also searched the general internet and https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user.  found lots of references to this but no way to download the ily file as I have done a

few times in the past.

[ root ]
|- - oll-core

Any help or pointers are appreciated.
