Thanks to Omer and Jean for getting me back on the Frescobaldi road again.
I’m now able to open, edit and compile lilypond source documents again, but I’m
getting a lot of warnings about deprecated code which I’d like to get rid of.

Hello!
I would like to use Lilypond for a critical edition of Nicola
Vicentino's treatise "L'antica musica" (Rome 1555). The original
notation uses an unconventional accidental to indicate a pitch
modification of a "Diesis" (ca. 1/5 of a whole tone). To mimic the
appearance of this sign I need to

What about a normal staccato point? You can force its direction by
using `^`, for example
```
g\breve^.
```
Thank you! Is there a way to keep the staccato dot just above the
notehead also when there is a stem (on a minima for example)?
```
g2^.
```
Best!

A minima? Really? How shall this look like? Contrary to modern
notation, the stems of minimae and friends are horizontally
centered...

Hi all,
I was answering a user's question on the FB group, and noted that in the docs,
we suggest
“To explicitly specify a rest’s vertical position, write a note followed by
\rest.”
While this is a useful thing to know about, I don't personally believe it's a
best practice: it mixes conte

A modern half note, sorry for the unclear terminology. The original
notation puts the dot above the (centered) minim stem, but in a modern
transcription I would prefer to have the dot above the notehead.

OK.

Hi Kieren,
how do you think that this feature is more useful than \tweaking the y-offset?
If the documentation explains how to move a rest, the officially recommended
way should be using \tweak in my opinion. It's unclear to me what's the use

My two cents:
Tweaking the position is fine to avoid a collision or to keep a rest about the
same “viewing” line then the notes of a phrase
But, or better And:
When composing; arranging it happens often that a note is skipped (read: turned
into a ‘rest’). Think about note patterns what repeat,
Well, we're mostly agreeing ;-). I wouldn't support pointing out the downsides
of note+rest as suggested by Kieren nor I'm sure that I agree it's useful to
know about note+rest: if \tweak is the proper way to do it, let's document that
instead.

I've just spent another couple of hours clearing out previous attempts
to get Frescobaldi running and attempting to sort out its dependency
hell.
Is there any alternative to Frescobaldi?
I'm running AlmaLinux 8.6 if that helps.

Hi Martin,
that depends on what you consider an alternative to Frescobaldi. Lilypond can
be used with any text editor. There is a quite powerful Lilypond module for
VSCode, maybe that is something along the lines of what you are looking for?
Cheers,
Valentin

I don't, personally. =)

I agree. I was simply offering a less… um… nuclear doc
I've come late to this thread, but if you are on Alma Linux I'll run a
VM up and figure this for you. Don''t despair.
I'm not aware of any 'dependency hell' on several other Linux distros,
so let me sort this out and post a set of instructions how to install it.

Well well. Alma Linux is indeed a fine distro, but now I agree with you
about dependencies on this linux. Part of the process to install PyQt4
is to install enough of Qt4 to get qmake and that's a nightmare. It's
absurdly complicated. And Qt4 has been obsoleted anyway, making this all
that much
