But it is wise to look around again from time to time. Surely the NWC is a nice tool, I used it for many years, but it depends on what you need: If you need primary a good notation: Use Denemo. It can do everything what NWC can do, but more and better. And of course the Notation Output is superior because of Lilypond. If you need decent Midi: Use Denemo in 2 months. www.denemo.org Nils On Tue, 08 Sep 2009 07:27:44 -0400 Dave Phillips <dlphillips@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Jonathan Gazeley wrote: > > I'd love to, except I was a long-time Windows user before switching to > > Linux 2 years ago.
