Well, it is not going away since the primary generator of LilyPond files are humans rather than programs. As opposed to a "file format", however, the only reliable reader (not just interpreter) of LilyPond files is LilyPond itself. That's a disadvantage for interfacing with other programs. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
