That's why I said "I need to think about this". Or I think I said it. I meant to say it, at least. > So can I use makelsr.py on my machine, but not add the new lsr files to git? > That doesn't sound particularly good to me. Well, yeah. Hmm... right now I'm imagining a prepsnippet.py, which copies a single snippet. makelsr.py would then call prepsnippet.py on every snippet it normally handles. > What I did this time around (and I didn't like it well at all) was just put > a copy in input/new, and copied it to input/lsr.

Not only that, but with a minimum of effort. IMO, people adding new features should only be required to write one .ly file (for input/regression/ ); they shouldn't need to do any other manual tweaking to get a snippet in input/lsr/. I suspect this will need to wait 6 weeks, unless John pops out of the woodwork to say "I was kicked out of my teacher training thing, so I have plenty of time for lilypond now" :P Or unless a Frog particularly wants to handle it. But since I know exactly what the problem is, and I'm decent at python, and it isn't particularly time-sensitive, I can do this easily once I'm home. Fixing this could also tie into my long-desired separation of docs from code -- we kill input/ entirely. Snippets go in docs/input, and regtests go in regression/ or regtests/ or something like that. Oh, I also hate the capital letter in "Documentation", so I'm wanting "docs/" instead. And the current input/examples/ dies completely and is replaced by lsr-derived stuff. And maybe see if we can set up lsr on Valentin's new server, if that new server is more reliable than the current one. And a pony. I really want a pony. Cheers, - Graham PS actually, I don't want a pony. What I /really/ want is to hike up a mountain (a proper mountain, at least 1km high), find a patch of snow, tear off my clothes, and roll around naked in it. Bloody endless 30-degree temperature... you guys can have all the "tropical paradise" you want. I am *so* looking forward to cold Scottish rain. _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
