Greetings, automatic recognition of scanned music is currently a very difficult thing to achieve, and unfortunately we do not have the resources (people, money, time, skills) to develop such a thing on our own; besides, since LilyPond is Free Software, we cannot simply take an existing commercial program and embed it into LilyPond (even if we had enough money to buy the license, which we don't). That is certainly a nice idea, but I don't see it happening in the next few years (at the very least). Regards, V. Villenave. _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
