Hi Stefano,  I’m sure it would’ve been nicer, but life is short and I’m old, with way too many projects already (thirteen of them public, all FOSS). Thanks for the suggestions, but I’ve been programming in Windows since 1999, and wrestling with Linux is not on my bucket list. I agree that fragm

Re: I wrote a MIDI to Lily front end; also questions about video

Yeah I figured using event-listener.ly wasn’t likely to work, because that was too easy.  This other thing that you linked is hella  complicated. It also does many things that I don’t need to do. All I need out of this is a text file just like the one that comes from event listener, except with

Hi Jean, Thanks for your reply. Regarding scheme code: it seems to me that the simplest solution would be to modify event-listener.ly so that instead of storing point-and-click data (row and column within the lily file), it instead stores the pixel coordinate X, Y of the note’s (or rest’s) glyp

Hi all, I'm a composer and a software developer, and I started using LilyPond only a week ago. I'm very impressed with LilyPond; its functionality and documentation are outstanding. I had previously tried Sibelius and MuseScore, but had many issues with them. I spent much of the last week conver
