I'm a fan of laziness. I find the easy lazy way to do something while still accomplishing the task with a desired quality. Since I presently prefer Lilypond output over other programs, I'd still call even your laziness a very nice thing for you to honor us all with (although your code cleaners may disagree). Could this be resolved by handling the parenthesis related fixes with launching entirely different code to either execute those changes or to patch the bad conversions? I found a similar scenario from running 1.8.x and using statements like #(set-octavation 1) lead to the parenthesis stepping further over, which caused syntax errors. I corrected mine, but isn't convert-ly what mutopiaproject should rely on for non-manual updates? _______________________________________________ Bug-lilypond mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
