Revert Havoc font change. Doesn't work on build machine. I presume this is down to the much older version of XeLatex on the build machine. Too late and almost certainly too fiddly to fix right now.

\documentclass[a5paper,landscape,11pt]{article}
Switch to XeTeX to render. Opens up random OpenType fonts and UTF-8. Also switch to Times New Roman for the main text. The music is set with Postscript Times, so this is the easy approach to better typographic consistency.

Add list of tune first lines. Add a list of tune first lines to the Booke. First, a small Python script to filter a .abc file and spit out just enough to give a graphic of the first line without the title. Then generate these graphics and generate a new section in the Booke with a longtable of tune name and the first line graphic.

\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}
Make output larger where possible. This is done by a) reducing the page margins b) compressing the heading and removing all but Notes: fields. The latter produced vertically smaller tune PDFs that will scale wider. In the process, modify abctitle.py to extract the first of any header field, and move formatting for a single tune into a .fmt file.

% Title page
Redo the printed Booke title page. Put a big title in English Towne, the official Havoc font. Add a title for each volume, and also print the subtitle on the cover. Add the buzzard, too. On A5, we now need to split the title page across two physical pages. This looks OK to me.

All tunes in this book are believed to be in the public domain, or at the
very least enjoy widespread currency on the folk music scene. If I have
inadvertantly transgressed on anyone's copyright, please contact me at
\href{mailto:dottes@cryhavoc.org.uk}{dottes@cryhavoc.org.uk} and I will
remove the offending tune.
The Booke of Dottes is a constant work in progress. You can download the latest
version from \url{http://dottes.cryhavoc.org.uk/}.
Add reference to web location.

\section{Tunes}
Update book making command. Switched to A5 portrait. In landscape it stretches the image to fit the width, and that causes a lot of longer tunes to become too high to fit properly on the page. Build the book in a separate build directory. The build generates lots of .abc files and so forth, which it is convenient to have elsewhere so you can ignore them. I did experimend with \abcinclude, but that has a lot of expectations about the files being in the current directory. If a tune has multiple titles, pick the first. Adjust abcm2ps options to preserve the line breaks in the ABC.
2012-02-27 13:04:37 +00:00
Tunes are arranged in alphabetical order of tune title.
