Above will fail as soon as accented letters etc are used:
\markup \alternate-colors #'("red" "blue" "green") "trööt"
->
(process:6915): Pango-WARNING **: Invalid UTF-8 string passed to
pango_layout_set_text()

warning: no glyph for character U+FFFD in font
`/home/hermann/.local/share/fonts/C059-Roman.otf'

This is due to guile-1 limitations.
Some where there is some code around it, but I hate caring about this
special problem.
With Jonas' experimental guile-2-build it works shamelessly.
My strongest argument to switch to guile-2 for good.


I guess I can do it manually, but would be nice to be able to do it on the fly. At the moment I am only using the script for Headline and my dividing lines. Although kinda not really a good thing that the problem that lilypond has issues with such things - like the midi thing that you need 2 scores and 2 different note sets to make it work as it should. You already writing all the code, the Midi output should be capable of doing it correctly.
It's not making it easier for newbies and users overall. Just saying.

Anyway I just had a crash with my Frescobaldi so I lost a lot of tabs and information - second time losing things. I guess a save function like in notepad++ is still to much to ask for in our days as default...

Anyway guys, we need a English forum for this, I am way to confused with the email thing and finding things again. I still can't write directly from the webpage and I just can't get it... I saw a German forum for Lilypond, we need an English one as well.

If I can get over this issue of money, I will buy a domain and setup a forum - but I have some issues with things at the moment, a lot of issues. No credit card, bank closed it and the state are now redrawing the support money from me as they push more madness.

But I can setup a forum, when I get some resources as long as some people wanna moderate it overall...

Dearly regards
