The only issue is that the lilypond code isn't interpreted by LaTeX directly, but called through lyluatex. I worked with Urs a few years back to produce an architecture for editing multi-volume Lily file trees, with excellent output, all called through LaTeX. I'm not sure if the project is still hosted anywhere (it was residing on Urs' private github/gitlab server), but it worked well. I don't use any tools in frescobaldi besides the point-and-click functionality that wouldn't already be available in any modern TeX IDE. But it seems my issues with frescobaldi are due to some problems with my qtwebengine installation, so I might be able to get them resolved relatively easily. Updating it to use PyQt6 would be an important long-term sustainability goal, but at least it's not a complete blocker for me (for now). Cheers, A
