However, IMO that's not really possible at this point because Lilypond is not stable enough yet. The language is constantly changing, and so are things like the command-line options for lilypond-book. It's not reasonable to expect users to write documentation, knowing that their documentation will become obsolete in a few months. To me, a version number like 2.2 is inappropriate for lilypond at this point. Given the rapid pace of development, I think it should be more like 0.2.2, and when software is at 0.2.2, it's not really done enough to attract third-party documentation. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
