Hi all, For me one of the biggest advantage of Mutopia (as a singer) is the possibility of transposing songs in every tones!
Some years ago I submitted a few *mélodies* on Mutopia. My coding policy was tweaking the least, that for two reasons : 1) I thought the file is more maintainable with only raw code + is easily readable and modifiable. 2) I thought Lilypond will improve so that it will ask for less tweaks. I agree : – that Mutopia files aren’t (all) beautiful (and I contributed that way) – that layout and content should be separate (I try to do it most of the time) – that it is too soon to use edition-engraver for Mutopia files Regards, Calixte. 2015-04-27 16:38 GMT+02:00 Urs Liska <u...@openlilylib.org>: > > > Am 27.04.2015 um 16:15 schrieb Noeck: > >> Dear Kieren, >> >> With the edition-engraver, there is (a) no need to mix layout with >>> contents >>> >> I already wanted to submit a score to Mutopia using the edition >> engraver.
