I just have to take a minute to say "Thank-You '' to everyone who has
had anything to do with creating Lilypond. I have been dabbling in it
for a few years but decided to get serious about it 6 months ago. I've
been learning all I can and even ordered the printed manual (which I
HIGHLY recommend to anyone wanting to learn).
The brass band I play in (Natural State Brass Band, nsbb.org
<http://nsbb.org> -- I'm that good looking chap in the middle of the
basses) is presenting a piece which had no full score, just a (very)
condensed one. I decided to take the parts and create a full score and
the results are eye-poppingly beautiful. It was so much fun I did it
again, this time (manually) combining a few parts to clean things up a
bit. Imagine my surprise when I discovered "partCombine"! Fantastic.
I intend to keep learning with the goal of generating some income
engraving scores. I've been a professional computer programmer for over
25 years, so I really enjoy the ability to "program" the notes and other
information. The results are simply beautiful.
Thanks, everyone. You will be seeing me around, hopefully answering
questions and maybe even getting into some of the development efforts.
Best Regards,
