at which point does it segfault? > (BTW: > Hallelujah! end of forced scroll animation!

You should not need to do this any more. When you started the new version (provided you had not externally created a directory called .denemo-1.1.2 before launching the new Denemo) you get a dialog offering to keep your settings. What you can do in your circumstance is to copy Default.commands from the new distribution and Default.shortcuts from your old .denemo-xxx/actions directory. That should make all the commands available while keeping your shortcuts. > > (3) Typeset music failing to render a file that is rendered fine by my > old (current) denemo 1.0.9 This is usually caused by old LilyPond syntax that Denemo used to add for default beaming that 1.0.9 added to files by default. Execute the Score->Typesetter->Use Normal Beam Endings command to fix this. (If you haven't got Default.commands from the distribution, you will need to get that first as that menu is changed since 1.0.9 I suspect). > > (4) More of a warning than issue, really: Denemo xml files tend not be > backwards-compatible.

That would not work in general, but may give you something useful. Software generally isn't written to open yet-to-be-invented file formats, for obvious reasons, so 1.0.9 will not read the newer 1.1.2 format.
