I agree with Kieren. A “Help” button in Frescobaldi that could show you documentation about each feature would be great. I find it easier to just go and search the LSR (which gives relevant results to what I’m trying to do, with each snippet documented and exemplified), than trying to know what each of OLL’s components are for. Documentation about each of the OLL’s packages/modules is very scarce at the moment.
