In a score editor. Like Emacs' LilyPond-mode. Or Frescobaldi. Nobody says that you should not be able to make use of shortcuts, but that does not mean that the LilyPond language is the right place for providing them. Editing shortcuts have a nice place in editors. q is one of those features that make LilyPond unfeasible as a storage format for music. Users like to save keystrokes, and they bemoan the demise of Mutopia, and the rise of MusicXML over LilyPond as a music presentation format. Nobody wants to see the connections. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
