OooLilyPond seems to be EXACTLY what I was looking for to write a book on jazz improvisation.

 

I use Window XP and I can get it to insert simple scores in OpenOffice.org such as:

 

\key c \minor \relative c'' { c16 es, d es c es d es c' es, d es c es d es }

 

which is the test given in the sourceforge webpage.

 

However, other scores that are created in LilyPond without problems, such as this one given in the LilyPond tutorial:

 

     \version "2.10.10"
     melody = \relative c' {
        \clef treble
        \key c \major
        \time 4/4
     
        a b c d
     }
     
     text = \lyricmode {
        Aaa Bee Cee Dee
     }
     
     harmonies = \chordmode {
        a2 c2
     }
     
     \score {
        <<
           \new ChordNames {
              \set chordChanges = ##t
              \harmonies
           }
        \new Voice = "one" {
           \autoBeamOff
           \melody
        }
        \new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" \text
        >>
        \layout { }
        \midi { }
     }

get quite a lot of "syntax error"s and "unknown escaped string"s and "unexpected string"s.

 

Does OooLilyPond have a shorter scope than LilyPond?

 

I've tried running both "lilypond.exe" and "lilipon-window.exe" as the executable on "config", with the same results.

 

Thank you!
