"A long story short": I cannot avoid the impression that the story should have been shorter from the start, namely that one would have hoped for more parts of LilyPond being prepared for working with multiple media and expressions so that coding this application would have been more straightforward. As it stands, LilyPond is not really well-suited for manipulating music on a symbolic level in anything but its own terms. > I now have a live demo of this project online: > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjfKDJm_xmI Thanks for keeping us updated on your progress! -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
