Re: On creating "title pages" and the like

[Joshua Nichols]

I want to apologize for inciting any frustration... I guess in my small mind (with limited understanding of TeX systems and the like) I thought when a particular documentation supported using a command that I associate with LaTeX, (such as the preverbal \begin and \end commands) I assumed someone was saying LaTeX recognizes it. I think Philippe on the forum answered the question I was trying to ask, which is probably more like asking "how do I directly connect lilypond-book with a LaTeX editor (as he said, Texworks)... I guess in the end I didn't understand anything at all, and my hard head saw LaTeX and didn't see "preprocessed with lilypond-book."

Thanks for putting up with me. I am learning a lot. :)

IC,

Josh

I understood this. But from what I can see in the documentation, my problem isn't addressed in the lilypond documentation

>What particularly was your problem in applying this to your case?

I don't know how to get my latex system to recognize the following:

\begin{lilypond}
\relative c' {
  c2 e2 \tuplet 3/2 { f8 a b } a2 e4
}
\end{lilypond}

Probably because I don't have some package. The problem is that I don't see a package described anywhere... and everytime I just "try" using \begin{lilypond}\end{lilypond} or \lilypond {...}. When I try using \usepackage{lilypond}, and process through LaTeX, I get wierd looks from my process log....

! LaTeX Error: Environment lilypond undefined.

That's after copying and pasting the example given in the documentation.

Help? Thanks again for dealing with me (and what I think might be an obvious solution).
