Re: SystemStartBar on one-staff systems

Lilypond versus Braille

2007-10-15 Thread Tomas Valusek
Hello, has anyone created a comparison between Lilypond source file format and Braille notation? The Braille notation is described at http://www.brl.org/music/. For blind people, Lilypond input file syntax is much moor natural than for other users. Tomas Valusek _
