Why jump through all these hoops? granted, ABC-midi is not as complex and its rendering is not as nice as lilypond generated sheets - but for collaborative composition it's quite sufficient and the ABC text-format is perfect for a wiki. Besides, there are already existing wiki-plugins for it. example: http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/abcmiditutorial and you can toy around: http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/abc Once you're done, you could download the ABC midi notation, run it through 'abc2ly' and fine-tune it in lilypond if that's needed. Midi-playback works from most browsers; timidity can also open URLs. Sound-fonts are of course an issue and will need to be pre-shared. 2c, robin > -- Niels > http://nielsmayer.com > _______________________________________________ > Linux-audio-user mailing list > Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
