I agree with you. I've never used SCORE, but one big advantage of lilypond is that you don't really need to tweak all the time because it does the right thing. but the gnome backend seems to be the most sane idea to deal with tweaks, you enter the notes typing and tweak the music graphically. > The biggest obstacle to SCORE users probably is the fast changing syntax. > They _need_ a reliable format. I know sometimes it's a PITA to have the format changing all the time, but to me that was a good decision, you know, change the format while there is not lots of users (I mean millions) depending on it and ending up with a very good and *tested* format. I mean, compare the format we have now with the format of 1.6 or so. To me the format used by lilypond is the best text format available now (comparing with darms, guido, and friends) and one of the reasons is that the developers were willing to change it mercilessly. So instead of having a format designed by a commit (sp.?) we have a format dictated by testing and use. That's pretty cool, IMHO. Anyway, it is maturing and changing less and less in each version.
