Hi, Walter: Another editor that I have enjoyed for quite some time now is TeXShop. I use TeXShop on OS X for my mathematics typesetting -- I agree that it's quite a good app. What are the steps I need to perform (if any) to prepare it for Lilypond editing? Sounds like that would be much easier

Pretty basic really. If you figure out a way to get the point and click thing working with TexShop I would appreciate hearing about it. I'm not an expert, but I don't think it is possible because point and click works with the .dvi file, but I couldn't find any dvi reader that works natively on

For some reason, jedit's really slow on my Mac (1GHz iBook G4, 512Mb RAM, OS X 10.3.8). Even with the syntax completion features turned off, lily4jedit is not really useable. Does anyone else have this? Any ideas? I've tried increasing the amount of memory given to the Java interpreter, but it

Hi! In my impression lilypond.app should be like MacCsound (www.csounds.com/matt/MacCsound), Csound is a text environment for electronic music, it runs on a command line, but the version for mac provides a very simple text editor ready for syntax, correction of mistakes and some GUI elements

Hello, Han-Wen: BTW, the description of getting Lilypond up and running on a pristine MacOS X (getting XCode, lots of compilation) seems rather involved. I wonder whether there would be any interest in a native MacOS X binary of Lilypond, with a pretty installer. An binary which is up and running

Hi, I am not sure, that's why I'm asking. Initially, my thoughts go out to a subscription: we provide regular builds, and the subscriber is able download those during X months. Perhaps there could support for installation troubleshooting as well. Sounds OK for me as well, but Fink works

My feeling is that Lilypond is different that GB, and concerning the notation, it is superior in many ways (I'm not sure though, can anyone send a PDF sample to me?). If anything, it should be as expensive. As a mac user, two cents: 1) GB is also an audio/midi editor. So, it can be compared only
