Hi all,

Frescobaldi 1.0.1 has been released, a bugfix release in the stable 1.0 
branch, including some bugfixes and stability improvements and a new Galician 
translation contributed by Manuel A. Vázquez.
Download: http://lilykde.googlecode.com/files/frescobaldi-1.0.1.tar.gz

The development branch is also shaping up nicely, and is quite usable even if 
there is not yet a package release.

Most compelling new feature in the development branch is that you can 
configure multiple versions of LilyPond (installed on different places on your 
system; the binaries don't need to be in your PATH). You can configure a 
default version to use, but Frescobaldi can also choose a suitable version of 
LilyPond depending on the \version statement in your document. A custom Run 
LilyPond dialog has been added (Ctrl+Shift+M or shift-click the LilyPond icon) 
to choose a particular version and set other parameters for a LilyPond run).

This way you can play and test with development releases of LilyPond while 
still using a stable LilyPond for your production work.

Other niceties are that it is possible to assign keyboard shortcuts to 
articulations in the Quick Insert panel (right-click the articulation 
buttons), and a new dialog to insert characters from the Unicode table. Some 
expansions in the Expansions Dialog now have default keyboard shortcuts. The 
documentation has been improved.

You can get the development branch of Frescobaldi by entering these commands:

svn checkout http://lilykde.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/frescobaldi
cd frescobaldi
cmake . && make && sudo make install

You can keep your copy of Frescobaldi up-to-date with:

cd frescobaldi
svn update && cmake . && make && sudo make install

The development branch of Frescobaldi requires Python 2.6, KDE 4.2 or higher 
and SIP 4.9.1 or higher (at least 4.9.3 recommended). See also the INSTALL 
file in the frescobaldi directory.

Bug reports and wishes are very welcome.
Enjoy and best regards,
Wilbert Berendsen
