Dear Mr. Fodor
I want to thank You for Your great work with the jEdit Lilypond tool.
Although I have moov'd on to use Frescobaldi as my front end I used Your
Lilytool extensively for several years both professionally as a
teacher of music and for more or less serious works of love:
transcribing early music, composing, editing Orthodox polyphonic chant
etc.. Your tool was the only really functionable front end for a
windows user before Frescobaldi got their windows version running.
The Lilytool and its jEdit underlying editor still has many features
that work better than Frescobaldi amongst others the greater possibility
make your own plugs on the plug (had a project running consisting of
making a app to feed in lyrics to different model melodies in Russian
orthodox chant in multiple voices. It sadly potter'd out due to the
usual: not time enough.)
My switch was mainly because of a more reliable point and click, midi
player and a more functional code completion in Fresco. Your Wizards
have in my opinion a better functionality than the fresco wizards as
does the way to make and include your own code snippets.
I'm sad to hear that the lilytool era now seems to go the way of the
world. My best wishes to You and a lot of thanks from.
Andreas Stenberg
