I’ve been around for a short while only. A month with lilypond and
3 weeks on the list. Made a couple of scores, quite complex ones.
But for each and every one I had to fiddle for hours and hours
trying to grab all the details. All the while I had Sibelius at the
ready and whenever I did fallback finished the score in record
time. This is not going to continue I thought. I’d rather have a
score that looks 85% than no score at all. So for now it’s quits
with Lilypond. Perhaps I’ll be back, I just don’t know. All that
helped, many thanks. I have now disabled the posts from the list,
any reply have to be personal.
Hou je goed / Keep well,
Is this the equivalent of quitting your job and telling all of the
people there "you're all a bunch of idiots!" except that no one here
really cares whether or not you use lilypond?
For what it's worth, I lasted about the first time I downloaded
lilypond back in 2005, and then maybe four months the next time. And
it really wasn't until the documentation was re-written, and I had
the time to devote three months to learning lilypond that I finally
got it. Until that time (and while I was writing the music for my
senior recital) I unhappily used finale.
