"espanol" was not being discussed. At any rate, Is there any spoken language _other_ than Spanish that would employ Spanish note names? > Also, I would keep 'francais' despite of the Français language itself > needing UTF-8 just from a sense of near-zero harm, near-zero > performance/memory penalty, if any. It's not a question of "keeping" it. The patch was _adding_ it. LilyPond is large enough as it stands without adding stuff nobody needs. I haven't seen a single reason why anyone would be wanting to use "francais" for specifying a notename language that calls d "ré". > Or, rather maybe keeping it is near-zero sense, I don't know. Do you have a rationale why anyone would be missing "francais" as an alias for the _new_ notename language using "do ré mi..." as note names? -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
