Hi There, after almost one year of frantic development I'm happy to announce a usable alpha-release of Frescobaldi 2.0 (version 1.9.0).
https://github.com/wbsoft/frescobaldi (click Download) Frescobaldi is a dedicated LilyPond sheet-music editor with built-in PDF preview. Frescobaldi 2.0 is not depending on KDE anymore and can run on Windows (needs packaging of poppler-qt4 python binding), Mac OS X and Linux. It uses Python, PyQt4 and Poppler (for the PDF preview). Most features of Frescobaldi 1.x are available, except for Rumor support. MIDI input and output will probably be implemented using PortMIDI and merged into Frescobaldi later in the 2.0 line. I have imported all translations from Frescobaldi 1.x. Of course there are also some new strings which can be translated. What's new: - very robust LilyPond parser that also understands HTML, TexInfo, etc. with embedded LilyPond. It also powers the syntaxis coloring. - PDF preview with smart, two-way, point and click (you can change the document and the links still point to the correct notes). Can also highlight objects in the PDF while the cursor is moving in the text. - magnifier (Ctrl-Click in PDF preview) - fully rewritten snippet manager can also run Python scripts and has lots of intelligent functions to make flexible insert commands that can be put in the Insert menu and have keyboard shortcuts - built-in User Guide - multiple movement/score support in Score Wizard - multiple/split editor views This is an alpha-release, but testing is very welcome.
