I really hope he decides to keep it alive because my only experience with a good notation program was when I had an Amiga computer. I created several projects by converting sheet music into actual scores that I was able to use while I played guitar and sang. I got actual jobs from using that progam. When I get to that point again (I'm working on my contibution to LAD), I will love to have noteedit to be able to reproduce what I did on the Amiga and have the scores find their way into future projects. Of course a light-weight note editing program is of value. Those other progams that offer a notation feature are great. But who wants to go thru the pains of just getting it to start correctly just because you wanted to transfer notes from a page to actual music? And even if it starts right up without making you configure unrelated stuff, then it's just too bloated for a single task like transfering notes from a page to a program to create an actual musical score. And what about all the dependencies one would have to track down just to get a full featured program (with a notation feature) up and running? I just had to speak up. I really hope he keeps noteedit alive... Rocco
