Uh, Emacs has not exactly been standing still the last 7 years. Anyway, nobody is keeping your experts from using and documenting Eclipse or Netbeans for creating Lilypond files. > Perhaps even the development platform should be changed here and there > to make sure there are good tools to use. One thing I have learnt in the past: it is mostly pointless to try supporting a platform that is not your own choice. If others are passionate enough about it, they will do a better job than you can. Lilypond is a batch processing system. You can use whatever editor you like with it. If there are people who like Emacs, that does not change Lilypond to the better or worse. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
