incipit 2021.3.2

incipit — extract systems of staves from musical scores
This command-line tool (and Python package) allows for the easy extraction of
systems of staves from musical scores. In particular, it makes it easy to extract
the first system of any musical score that is in B&W format, and has a noiseless
enough background
This tool was built to automatically generate incipits for large sets of scores,
like those downloaded from IMSLP. It was specifically built to create an index
of the 555 keyboard sonatas by Domenico Scarlatti, in a related project.
Installation
The package is available on PyPI as incipit and so is available the usual way, i.e.,
sudo pip install incipit

In addition to the Python package, this should also install a CLI binary that is
runnable, called incipit.
Usage
Usage: incipit [OPTIONS] INPUT

Extract the first (or any) system of staves from a black-and-white modern
musical score, either available as an image file or PDF. For instance,

$ incipit -o "555-incipit.png" ./input/pdf/555-gilbert.pdf

will extract the first system of staves of the sheet music
`555-gilbert.pdf' as the image `555-incipit.png`. And,

$ incipit --output "1__{}.png" -# '0,-1' ./input/pdf/1-gilbert.pdf

will extract the first and last systems of staves of `1-gilbert.pdf` and
output these as the images `1__0.png' (first system) and `1__10.png' (last
system).

Options:
-a, --audit Visualize system detection across document
-c, --count Output number of detected systems
-p, --pages TEXT List of pages to process (e.g., '0', '0,-1')
-#, --systems TEXT List of systems to extract (e.g., '0', '0,-1')
-h, --height-threshold FLOAT % of height threshold for system detection
-w, --width-threshold FLOAT % of width threshold for system detection
-o, --output TEXT Output file pattern
-v, --verbose Print debug information
--version Show the version and exit.
--help Show this message and exit.
