Sure. We already have a lilypond server mode, which nobody wants to document or maintain. We also have http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=686 which nobody has wanted to work on for almost 4 years now. Ideas are easy. Execution is hard. - Graham _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
