Attached here, so it should get through to you and Andrew MacNabb. The cheatsheet.ly included requires Lilypond 2.7.0 to run unaltered.

Yes, to have a "correct" bagpipe template in the manual is probably not necessary - just include info about availability and where to get it. > Andrew McNabb seems to have a good site, too: > http://www.mcnabbs.org/andrew/linux/lilypond-ghb/ True, though it appears that Andrew hasn't updated his template since quite a few versions back. > Would there be interest in having an official "bagpipe.ly" > distributed with LilyPond, such that any bagpipe players > could use it? (similar to "english.ly" ) ? Good question. I find Lilypond eminently well suited for bagpipe music, and it would do the piping community good to use a program that actually produces good looking music instead of the horribly ugly stuff you get from, for example Bagpipe Music Writer (a pretty popular program). If there is interest, I would be prepared to maintain an official bagpipe.ly. -- P/S Sven Axelsson, The Murray Pipes & Drums of Gothenburg
