One can without much trouble enter a score start to finish. Only the old noteedit let me do that before. Mscore (is this still being developed?) promised to be a linux sibelius, is a very snazzy program indeed, but suffers from some instablitity and controversial UI decisions (in my mind--I like this program a lot but have not succeded with it). Denemo, once one learns how to use it, is an alternative, feeding lilypond for output. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
