I'm attempting to print out my Holborne parts
<http://serpentpublications.org/wordpress/?page_id=22&id=61> with
something more like 17th century spacing and less like 19th century
spacing.
A recipe for this that I got a year or so ago
<http://osdir.com/ml/lilypond-user-gnu/2009-05/msg00256.html> included
the magic word:
\override BarLine #'extra-spacing-width = #'(+inf.0 . -inf.0)
This works very well for telling Lily not to put extra space between the
notes that are separated by an empty barline, which is something I want.
However, it seems to be telling Lily that even double thick repeat signs
with dots before and after take up no space, and this is causing a lot
of collisions when the spacing is tight, especially when the notes have
dots on them.
I've been playing with the other BarLine parameters, like kern and
thickthickness without much success.
Does anyone know a way to tell lily that an "empty" barline shouldn't
have space, but there should still be some space around the barlines
that are being printed?
Thanks,
