I think there are 3 candidates for a wysiwyg editor: 1) musescore 2) NtEd 3) Canorus I personally uses Frescobaldi with Lilypond most of the time, but sometimes NtEd (make sure you have the latest!) I like this one cause it's very fast, light and true wysiwyg! You have to try it (there is a Debian package)! http://vsr.informatik.tu-chemnitz.de/staff/jan/nted/nted.xhtml I have no experience with Canorus, but I think it is to unstable right now. So I think you should choose for a wysiwyg between mscore or NtEd. \r _______________________________________________ 64studio-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-devel
