2007/12/9, Paul Scott <address@hidden>:
why does "||:" exist and ":||" not? seems unlogical to me...
The second question is not answered and should be considered something
like a bug.
The following leads to no bar line at the end of the repeated section
since ":||" is apparently undefined:
{ a'1 \repeat volta 2 { g'1 } \break \bar ":||" f'1 g'1 }
Paul Scott
Now you know the meaning of "||:". What would then be the sense of ":||"?
"||:" produces a double barline at the end of the bar before "||:" if
there is a linebreak. But at ":||" you want ":|" at the end of the bar
and this doesn´t change if there´s a line break.
