Comment #14 on issue 903 by percival.music.ca: Enhancement: a more user-friendly way to specify notename languages
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=903
Historically, we have changed the syntax whenever the whim struck us. This policy is changing; there will be no syntax changes within stable numbers (i.e. 2.12.x, 2.14.y). As for "client programs", I'm thinking of things like lilywizardtemplate (or whatever it's called). If we change the format of \include "language.ly", then this tool will break. That's not a *huge* problem, but we shouldn't do it randomly.
In addition, lilypond 3.0 (estimated 12-18 months from now) will have a stable syntax for normal, non-tweaked music. (quite what that means will be determined later) Users and IDE writers will need to change their scores and programs when this comes out; I'm not certain that it's worth changing the language command in the near
future, and then change it again a year later. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
