Personally I use wordpad and make sure that I save in plain text. When I first save the file I go back and rename it for a .ly extension and from then on just work in it.
Then I can drag and drop the file on the lilypond icon or right-click on the file and 'open with...' Lilypond. That is about as simple as it gets I for me. I can even change the font in the wordpad file (to courier) as having a fixed width font to edit with is easier on the eye (I think).

It is for the computer in my music-school. It is an old machine and lilypondtool, because it requires java, doesn't work on it. Vim and emacs would be too complicated for my dear colleagues. And with the very simple editor that comes with the lilypondversion of windows, I have the problem, that it shows the whole file (that I've written with Frescobaldi) in one line. Does someone of You have an recommandation? _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
