Canorus and Lilypond 2.13.x
Hi, Lilypond and Canorus are both officially available for my Linux Fedora 11 system. But for correct display of the fonts on screen this canorus distribution depends on lilypond version 2.12.x. But I want to try and use the latest lilypond devel version 2.13.x. If I compile and install lilypond 2.13.x , canorus' screen display of fonts is broken. The problem is, I think, the emmentaler-14 font. But I have not been able to work around this problem yet. Has anyone else seen this problem ? Is there a way to have both the newest (devel) versions of Lilypond and Canorus installed, and still have fonts displayed correctly in Canorus ? -- Martin ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

As far as I can tell the developers came from a thing called NoteEdit running on Linux which has stopped development, so if any of you are Linux users, have a look at NoteEdit, see if _it_ has any documentation and if this gives you a clue on getting started. I think the first bit of Canorus has been a port to see if they can get the old NoteEdit code running on Windows and Mac/OS, too. My 2p worth Cheers, Ian No virus found in this outgoing message.

Canorus 0.5 released
Canorus development team is happy to announce the new release of Canorus - a free cross-platform music score editor, version 0.5. The new version brings lots of new features and import/export improvements. Upgrade is recommended for all the users. You can download it here: http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6144 *Note for Windows users*: Please use .xml file format for storing your scores. There is a known issue opening the new .can files under Microsoft Windows. Changelog: - Implemented infrastructure for getting MIDI-IN events. - Lots of internal API changes: - Generalized Import and Export classes. New fileformats can now be implemented simply by inheriting those classes. - Import and Export are now done in their own threads. - Rewritten Voice class for insertion, deletion and manipulation for music elements. The score should now always stay consistent when removing a shared element from a single voice. - Scripting engine now uses internal CA-class name names instead of class names only. This solves the naming clashing problem in various scripting languages that don't use namespaces (eg. PHP) and enum-class names clashes. - Added marks: - Arbitrary text - BookMark - Tempo (bpm) - Ritardando, Accellerando - Fermata (normal, short, long, very long) - Dynamic (f, mf, p, sfz, etc.) - Crescendo, Decrescendo - Pedal (sustain) - Instrument change (effects midi as well) - Rehersal marks (A, B, C, D etc. on barlines) - Repeat marks (coda, varcoda, segno, volta) - Fingering (finger numbers, strings thumb, organ's left/right heel/toe) - Added articulation marks: - Accent, Marcato, Staccatissimo, Espressivo, Staccato, Tenuto, Portato - Up bow, Down bow, Flageolet, Open, Stopped - Turn, ReverseTurn, Trill, Prall, Mordent, PrallPrall, PrallMordent, UpPrall, DownPrall, UpMordent, DownMordent, PrallDown, PrallUp, LinePrall - Implemented export to Midi. - New file format CAN - compressed CanorusML format with resources. This is now the default file format for Canorus. ISSUE: Please use CanorusML file format when using the document on cross platforms. - Using new RtMidi-1.0.7 library. - New translations (Canorus speaks 12 languages): - Danish - Norwegian-NB - Traditional Chinese - German - Hungarian - French - Lots of other cleanups and bugfixes.

Re: Canorus 0.2.5 is out
Thanks Sam, Perhaps I am not asking for help in the right way. I know these two postings should have been under Canorus but you can look at them anyway: https://developer.berlios.de/bugs/? func=detailbuggroup_id=1bug_id=10693 https://developer.berlios.de/bugs/? func=detailbuggroup_id=1bug_id=10735 and this is the latest one I put into Canorus help. https://developer.berlios.de/forum/message.php?msg_id=37096 In summary, the errors in 10693 are due to SWIG and Python, thus Matevž told me to excluding them from the cmake build. 10735 resolved in svn R425 and 37096 is open. Don't know how to proceed. What is the best way to get help? BerliOS? canorus-devel? I would like to give this a try. From what you said about Resegarden and Demeno, Canorus is the better bet. As for Lilypond.app, I used it for a while. But on OSX, when you download the whole Tex environment (http://www.tug.org/mactex/ ,) you get a gui app called TexShop.app. It is more feature rich than Lilypond.app and accepts and runs .ly files without problem.

Denemo has also been ported in the same way, but I'm not sure how alive that project is these days.
