To be honest, the biggest obstacle for me is simply being able to put the time in. The initial learning curve — the combination of Scheme syntax and even the "Hello World" handful of must-use functions to manipulate Lilypond grobs — seems daunting enough that I haven’t prioritized diving in. I’m quite sure I’d be able to answer your question better after getting past the starting line and hitting actual technical/understanding roadblocks.

Hi Kieren, my talk would be probably of some interest for you. From the description: "This talk discusses the prerequisites needed to write LilyPond extensions. A detailed, commented code example will be used to demonstrate how to retrieve details of LilyPond’s internals, how to modify them as necessary for the task at hand, and how to overcome obstacles, if possible. Finally, some thoughts will be shared on how to improve and simplify the coding of extensions in general. Languages: German and English." Alas, it will be in german, so I can't imagine how helpful it would be for you. Werner will likely upload the (german) script. And probably I could be persuaded to make an english version as well, although this would take some time. Though, I don't trust my spoken english enough to do the talk in english. This would hold for your "bootcamp" as well. Apart from the problem finding a slot for it, as Urs already mentioned, such a meeting would be a great place for it. Maybe we can arrange something more or less ad hoc once we meet there. Generally I'd be interested where you think the obstacles guile <-> LilyPond are. I frequently fail to really understand it. You may have noticed https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2020-01/msg00154.html where Daniel replies to my question. The main point could probably summarized as "confusing doc" Where do _you_ think are the problems? Cheers, Harm

[Notensatz im 21. Jahrhundert] Lily+Scheme bootcamp?
Hello future Salzburg-ers! Knowing the way my life works, and the fact that I’ll be in Salzburg for four days without the normal distractions (family, etc.), and at hand will be a rather wonderful collection of brains and facilities… Is there any way that someone (Urs? Harm? David N?) could run a relatively short (90'?) "Intro to Scheme-ing In Lilypond" bootcamp? Nothing too formal: just a stream-of-consciousness “Hello World” tutoring for those of us who want to get into Scheme-ing, but real life seems to always get in the way? I’d be happy to pay a little something — in currency hard (€) or soft (suds/grapes) — for the time & expertise. Thanks, Kieren.
