Re: Drawing program to tweak lilypond output?

2004-07-01 Thread Mats Bengtsson
I definitely recommend to do as many tweaks as possible from within
LilyPond itself. The reason is that even the final version of a score
often contains one or more mistakes that you want to correct later.
This means that you often would have to do these manual corrections
two or three times, so even if it's quicker to use a drawing program
the first time you do the correction, it will in the end take longer
than the additional time to find out how to do it in the .ly file.

When finishing a document I would find it useful if there were a free

could beautify some parts of the score manually. Is there anything out
there for this purpose?
 
Thanks,

I do not know of any that reads PS, but several read SGV: sketch,
sodipodi, inkscape.

There have been two efforts for SVG output; but I've never seen any
bug reports about them, so they are not supported and most probably
broken.

Now that LilyPond does titling and page layout, it may actually be
useful to have svg output.  You can have a look at resurrecting one of
them (scm/output-sodidpodi.scm, scm/output-sketch.scm).
