New issue 903 by v.villenave: Enhancement: a more user-friendly way to specify notename languages
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=903 Currently (as of version 2.13.7), the only way to use another language than the default for the notenames is: \include "italiano.ly" This has two downsides: it's not user-friendly at all, and cannot be used in safe mode. It has been proposed (you may want to read the thread starting on http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2009-05/msg00254.html for instance) that a more convenient shortcut could be used. Several shortcuts have been suggested: \notelanguage "italiano" { ... } (only applies to one block) \lang "italiano" or even: \italiano I am ready to work on a patch as soon as we define what the policy would be: shall we simply add the new shortcuts on top of the existing syntax or shall we deprecate the \include-based syntax, shall we wait for a major version bump, shall we write a convert-ly rule or not, etc. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
