[Denemo-devel] The next piece

[Nils Gey]

Because it is my task to write at least one piece in one week, no matter how 
simple or how small, here is my next one. Since I will write every piece of 
music in Denemo I hope I can give you feedback and bug reports which appear in 
"real life".
If it annoys you that I send my work with my Denemo-experience to this list 
please let me know and I will stop.

Today I wrote a folk-song in Germans 19th century style. Consisting of a 
monophonic voice, lot of stancers and probably an idea how to harmonize, 
normally shown in Guitar-Chords above the staff. Text is about wandering around 
in the dark and cold, feeling the far-away home but you have to travel on. In 
the end there is hope and the sun still shines. Typical romantic, wanderlust 
theme.

This means today I learned about setting Chords with Denemo and using the 
lyircs. My goal was to save all information within Denemo and not to use a 
text-editor afterwards. [Done]

For the chords I have reported two bugs, but the buglist is rather slow with 
sending mails to the mailinglist. 

For the lyrics I can say Denemo is not fit to write more than simple lyrics in 
an easy way. But Richard told me this before. Because I didn't understand the 
"multiple verses" example I have developed my own hack, as you can see in the 
attached file.

I hijacked the lyrics field (which would improve a lot if this was a 
more-than-one-line textfield) and set my own {} so that Denemo writes it just 
out and lilypond sees different functions. 

I had to use a custom scoreblock anyway, which I don't like, but this time its 
only a small piece and I don't think I need to rework much. So a custom 
scoreblock is ok.
