Seem to be too awkward for composing or notation where I want to place notes, not type commands. Problem is that many programs claiming to export to Lilypond produce junk. So need to fire up Frescobaldi, Lilypond editor, to try to fix it so must know the commands anyway. Sure don't feel like composing. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
