Reading some examples of lilypond
codes, I sometimes see \tuplet
and sometimes \times
for engraving nuplets.
In the documentation, the french (using \times
) and the english version (that uses \tuplet
) differ on the command to use.
When I try to engrave this example (using lilypond-book), using the command \tuplet
returns an error, that dissapear when I use \times
...
My questions:
What is the difference between these two commands ? Which one is the right one to use? (Is the difference related to the lilypond
version (v2.16 vs v2.18), or the system language?)
