Hello, thanks for the input.
After some hours of working with latex and several editors on windows and mac I decided to take the easy road: OpenOffice with the OOoLilypond Macro. It works not always as I thought, but with time I will find some workarounds. Three reasons for the decision: 1. When I write a text I want to focus on the contents. I dont want to see all these formating tags. It is for me also much harder to proof read the text. 2. I am used to work with strongly structured contents.So I will develop my stylesheet and stick to it. It will be similar to the Lilypond-documentation. 3. Most importent: I have the possibility to export the notation and the text to pdf, html and xml. So when there is a need, I can switch back to LaTex. By the way this is for me the easiest way to produce incipits for my wiki. Thanks again Hajo --- ... indessen wandelt harmlos droben das Gestirn On Fri, Mar 27, 2009 at 2:37 PM, Carl D.
