Citando Trevor Daniels <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I use LilyPondTool for jEdit and it is great and worth having it . My conclusion is that we may as well have two good text editors. Since I know, that jEdit is slower and I also experienced crashes or very slow instances when the Lilypond documentation was open besides a few files. Well that second editor I haven't decided for my case, maybe I'll settle with ConText. I've tried it a bit. And a faster editor is good for a quick check of files, and so on. But when I'm concentrated with Lilypond files, jEdit has been a real asset. I know we resist to learn extra stuff, but in my case, I want to learn better jEdit and enough of a second good editor.
