Hi Milan, I took a brief look at the patch. Some remarks/questions: - Do you want this to be integrated in to LilyPond? AFAICT, the patch well separated from LilyPond, and quite large. We can put it in, but you have to be prepared to maintain it when we refactor things in Lily and cause problems to happen in this patch. - How can we test this functionality? Over the last few months, we have been adding more and more tests, so we can be sure that we ship a working LilyPond version. It would be strongly preferred if this could be tested without requiring the presence of festival itself. - I see scripts written in bash and perl. Those must be Python to be part of LilyPond. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen LilyPond Software Design -- Code for Music Notation http://www.lilypond-design.com _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
