Actually, I tend to use text-based approaches not really because I care about the perfection of the result, but because it allows me to properly separate input, tool and output. Things like the accuracy of my mouse positioning don't figure into the result. Which make the result actually worse than when working WYSIWYG. But the responsibility for that lies with the process, it is reproducible, and it will respond to future improvements of the process. Old scores of mine keep getting better without me having to invest any work into any of them. That's hard to beat if they are "good enough" to start with. And if you are lazy like me, you won't invest much work of your own beyond "good enough" into any individual score. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
