I kicked the tires with VScode and the VSLilypond extension set, and it worked pretty well. I'm not sure I figured out how to *automagically* update the PDF display, all I had to do was to close and reopen the file and it was there. Clicking on a note in the PDF viewer took me right to the text and clicking on text and asking for it to find it in the PDF worked as well. Syntax highlighting and completion worked nicely as well as the formatting. Compiling worked nicely, although in some cases, my files generate some warnings that Frescobaldi did not. I suspect different compile options that could be worked out over time.
Overall, a reasonable replacement if Frescobaldi goes away....until then, Frescobaldi is still easier. -Jeff. :) On Thu, May 2, 2024 at 3:57 PM jeff <flechesensi...@gmail.com> wrote: > Well done Kenneth!
