It seems that you don't use LilyPondTool. If you used it, you would have a full-text search of LilyPond doc. See the screenshot at http://www.organum.hu/87.0.html
As a matter of fact, I do use LilypondTool. But I just did'nt remember the doc was included. Thanks a lot, this will be extremely valuable to me I guess... 2006/12/6, Graham Percival <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
2) What info was so hard to find? Can you think of any way to improve the lilypond docs? (missing terms in the index, perhaps?)
Well, my problems mostly come from the fact I don't always know the right English word for what I'm looking for... But let me try to sum up a few things I said to myself once : -it's a pity the LSR is a bit poor -we're missing some recent examples ; I often look for, say, orchestral scores on Mutopia or Lilypond pages but I'm always very disappointed these are mostly written with 2.4 or 2.6 (and convert-ly doesn't always work very well you know, especially with 2.10...) -a little box with a simple "search" button would be welcome on Lilypond.org, I really can tell you. Maybe it isn't the point to have some of those roaring websites, with complicated CMS, stylesheets, interface etc., but just a simple integrated search function ; is it possible to think about it ? You see, I understand LilyPond docs are very well organized. But we average users (and newbies) are not _that_ rational. Sometimes, navigating through tutorial, documentation, sections, sub-sections and so on can be longer and more difficult (no matter how "logical" it can be) than just typing a keyword and letting the computer find it for you. And once again, (and since I've learned there is actually some LilyPond-oriented MediaWiki extension), I can't help dreaming of an entire Wikipedia-style Lily doc... But thank you all for having taken a few seconds to answer me. Thanks for the Todo-list Graham. I'll try to give it a look though I'm not that experienced...
