Hi all,
I am most impressed I can now output hebrew with
lilypond !
But I thought it would be wise to my editor results.
I tried emacs but couldn't figure out how to type
hebrew, I know it doesn't support bidi (bidirection)
so I didn't try so hard.
jedit: I didn't have a clue how to make it ty
The file structure did it. I can't believe how much
lilypond has changed structurally.
I am so used to the old documentation I just didn't
know where to look.
great job.
Thanks
Aaron

Well,
I read the docs and I still am coming short:
The file structure page uses the phrase:
"music should be inside other expressions"

This is true but my only way of determining this is

As a techwriter/user this confuses me. should be is
a much weaker expression, like it doesn't have to but
if you want.. must says that it is a requirement to
have on of these.

Hi all
after try gvim for hebrew I installed gedit and see it
types hebrew out-of-the-box.
I thinks that if it had some of the power of emacs/vim
for lilypond I would switch to it.
I googled and found that gedit uses a gtksourceview
language-specs file for its support of diffferent
