How did you make the image of the LilyPond Händel score? It suffers
from very thick vertical lines, similar to the Evince/PDF bug that has
been discussed here several times.

That's a real interesting report!. You note that entering chords in
lilypond is real slow as compared to using MIDI entry.
While that's no surprise, I wonder if there's anything that we can or
should do about it. Typing is just real awkward...

What's nice about Lilypond from my composer's point of view is that it's
gotten me back to writing music with pencil and paper instead of doing it in
Finale. I've realized for a while that in some pieces Finale was making me

Thanks for catching this! Both have been fixed.

Hi all,
In my experience, LilyPond *is* capable of producing scores of the
highest caliber. However, I often spend so much time tweaking the
score to get it to look perfect that it really becomes a labor of
love.

I will agree with many of the preceding posts that entry of notes,
slurs, etc, is faster for me in Lily than in Finale. However, with
every new piece I have to devise a new hack to accomplish a certain
advanced thing - even as simple a thing as a slanted hairpin or a

For sure, a musical jazz font will be very useful! There a couple of threads
