Uh, it hasn't. You are confusing the empowering combination of free software and a reasonable amount of documentation and code factorization with "customized faculty". It's like calling a car "customizable" because its interiors are well-arranged, accessible through screws and other reversible mechanisms, there are wiring diagrams on major components of the car's electrics and so on and so on. That's an engineer's song of love and respect for those who are willing to hear it. But it is a song about engineering, not about driving. To make it the latter, there have to be user-level controls. And "user" is not the same as "entry-level engineer". Though we _are_ trying to make the distinction more fuzzy. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
