Great!  I'm going to twiddle it plenty more from here, so don't worry yet 
about ugly code or ugly formatting.

Right now I'm busy trying to cope with a weather event newsworthy enough it 
will surely have been reported by the BBC and others by now.  I'm really at a 
loss what the hell to do about any of this.  My waterworks can cope with 
hurricanes, but this is far worse of a deluge than any hurricane I've ever 
seen.  It's madness.  You should see the river running out of my rose garden, 
and the river running in my crawlspace.

Why so it doesn't.  Why doesn't it?  Maybe I'm thinking of OpenOffice.org that 
has a print button on the preview window.  Is this stock KDE?

I don't like "Process" much either.  "Preview" isn't quite telling the whole 
story either.  Was my first instinct right after all?  "Preview/Print with 
Lilypond?"

Incidentally, we really need to document the dependencies for these helper 
apps in such a fashion as to encourage people to install them.  Also, why 
does the LilyPond viewer require Xdialog, but the project packagers uses 
KDialog preferentially?

How should we best document this?  I'm thinking ideally we should warn users 
in the GUI, and we should also do something at configure time, even though 
these aren't, strictly speaking, build dependencies.  Configure time 
notification might encourage package maintainers to notice and act upon them.

These things are too useful to miss, but many will miss them.  In Debian 
parlance, they should be listed as "recommends" packages I think, but 
not "depends."

Not quite sure what to think about all that just at this moment, but it's one 
issue I'd like to put some thinking into before our next release.
