Dear Brother,
For those who use Emacs, or for anyone who is looking for an editor
that can syntax color gregorio .gabc files, I have written an Emacs
major-mode for gregorio.
Thank you very much for your work, it seems really efficient and
well-designed!
Emacs is a very popular editor and very
extensible, so I recommend it highly for writing gabc scores. Emacs
does require a little bit of learning to really master it, but the
time invested really does pay dividends, as I hope this major-mode
for .gabc will show.
For sure Emacs is very good and extremely powerful! I'm not sure all
users of Gregorio are ready to dig into it though...
As you can see, Emacs provides a complete writing system for gregorio
with this major mode. You can even view the resulting .pdf in Emacs
in a parallel window. There are also numerous Emacs extensions for
editing LaTex, which makes Emacs ideal for gregorio.
I have to say I'm impressed by the fact that you can see the pdf in Emacs!
Just a question: which license is your script distributed under? Would
you choose a GPLv3-compatible license (like BSD, GPLv2, etc.)? I was
thinking about distributing it in the contrib/ folder with Gregorio, do
you think it's a good idea?
Thank you,
--
Elie
