Of course it isn't. But it's the *easiest*, most *harmless*, way that you could get started. It's not an urgent job. Once somebody knows python and that script, it's a 5-minute job to fix it. That's why I thought it would be perfect for you to start with. As a general rule of thumb, 5 minutes of experienced developer time translates to about 5 hours for a complete beginner. If you're not a complete beginner at python and the script, then reduce the estimate according to however you rank your own skill. -snip- > Does it make sense? It's plausible, but I really don't know how the system works. You could try asking John Mandereau. I still think you should start with an easy job, but if you want to jump straight into the hard stuff, go ahead. - Graham _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
