If you have Java installed, you might want to try installing jEdit (http://www.jedit.org/) which has plugins that can handle syntax highlighting etc. for Lilypond. Microsoft-built editors in general will choke when opening documents created on Unix-like systems (including Linux & OSX), because the end-of-line character(s) for Microsoft is CR+LF while Unix uses LF. (And to top it off, old Macs used CR.) Any decent programmer's editor can gracefully make the conversion between the styles. Also, if you're using Lilypond >= 2.5, jEdit can save documents in UTF-8 format, which lets you include any Unicode character in your files, not just those accessible from your American or Western European keyboard. --Daniel _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
