What I would be interested in is a WYSIWYG editor that would be able to take down notes and output a basic ly file, perhaps to Dropbox. I don't want all the bells and whistles, but just the ability to quickly jot down things that come to mind while I'm away from my desktop and not have to reinput them when I get home. So basic staff/voice/lyrics stuff, since that's just going to be dropped into my existing template/stylesheet when I get home. There are some point-and-click editors for Android (which is what I use), but I don't know of any that interact with LP (note that it would not need to *run* LP, just output source). So basically a stripped-down version of MuseScore or Denemo that works on Android. Cheers, Carl
