I have to apologize for the tone I used. What was wrong was the fact that my words sounded like absolute blaming to someone/something. But please, even if I was wrong with this tone (and I can confirm this again and again): understand that
1) My intention was absolutely not to blame anything of Lilypond: as I told before, I consider the "bold"/plate approach of modern engraving as a problem for the readability of *all* the music engraving of any software/company. Lilypond itself has nothing to do with this (nor Feta has to do with it: it's simply a general rule, which I think derives from commercial reasons). 2) My intention was absolutely not to press developers/maintainers to develop anything. My idea was, instead, to show how good it could be to use what I consider an *impressive* work *already done* by someone else. Just link it, do not develop anything. That's all. This is not a way to say: "I was wrong/bad but you were wrong too". It's just a clarification of my intention. The tone used produced the opposite reaction. Also: don't consider too much what I wrote. It's not important what I wrote; what deserves attention is, instead, the work behind this font. Please look at it! In any case, I'll continue to contribute to the project, with my tools. I'm pretty sure I can release a pretty tool for doing insane things with piano scores. Then, even if with no feedback, I'll publish many examples in the next few days, hoping they could be useful (as Lilypond was and is useful for me) Sincerily, P On Wed, Jul 8, 2020 at 1:03 AM Jean Abou Samra <j...@abou-samra.fr> wrote: > Greetings everybody, > > I'm extremely upset to discover this thread. > > I was about to send a very, very long e-mail.
