Hi,

a couple of thoughts:

2013/12/4 Francisco Vila <paconet....@gmail.com>:
I find this path tortuous. People double-click
the lilypond icon, and don't see this shell as many of them could
expect. Instead, ugly things happen. Therefore, lilypond is ugly. I
think this summarizes the start and the end of a newcomer's
experience.

AMEN.
Francisco nailed it on the head.
Such things may seem small, but they make all the difference, and the
biggest companies (like Apple) know about this.  First impression,
elegance, simplicity, intuitiveness, etc. are very important.


AMEN+1

I also think lilypond's website is terrible. It looks like something out of the eighties knocked up on a dos machine. By comparison, take a look at the home pages of musescore, finale and sibelius.

Phil.
