Hi all, I just felt the need to say a big THANK YOU to everyone involved here - LilyPond is so damn powerful, and my scores always look great when printed. Between Denemo and Frescobaldi both helping me to harness the power of LilyPond, it's just a dream - really. Engraving music prior to using these tools was just, uninspiring and dull. Now, it's engaging just to typeset my finished compositions and archive them.
I just wanted to make sure you all knew how awesome you are for doing all this.
