Thanks. My point in all of this is to get a document re-written, using Open Source software to allow others in my group to contribute to it.
While I may be able to do some work to get this accomplished in the way I want (e.g., writing an XSLT transform to convert the Lilypond SVG output into an OpenOffice Draw document), I really don't have the time to do major ports of software. I spend my long work days doing this stuff; my evenings are reserved for my 5-year-old son. And I need to get this document done soon (in weeks, not months). So for now my game plan will be: 1. Try to get 1.7.9 to compile under Cygwin. 2. If that seems hopeless, build on my Linux box. This would be bad, because as I said I'll do most of this work during work hours, and our network drops my ssh connections to home every 2 minutes or so. . . 3. Write an XSLT filter to transform the SVG output to something that OO Draw will read. 4. If this all takes very long, I'll be drawing notation "by hand". BTW, I loaded those two sample sodipodi svg files into the Adobe Reader. It renders partially, but it shows bounding boxes where noteheads should be. Am I missing a font? -----Original Message----- From: Han-Wen Nienhuys [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 05, 2002 3:22 PM To: Ray Peck Cc: 'Jan Nieuwenhuizen'; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: Using Lilypond with OpenOffice?

Qt is also available on MS, but there might be problems with licensing and with the MIDI/sequencing libraries. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.cs.uu.nl/~hanwen _______________________________________________ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
