Re: editor Re: final score
Hi Sarah, TeXShop has line numbers, work OK with Lilypond. Has a possibility to compile it and open the PDF afterwards. Easy. Regards, Wim.

Re: editor Re: final score
I can't see well enough to do that. Actually I can't see at all and vo is notable at differentiation these things. It won't recignase a gray image in a title bar Im trying to install the last commit of the lily pond tool in to Jedit with no success at all and all the directions said was to unzip it in the Jedit directory which was ~/libraries/JEdit/ No dice. The program never found the plugin folder so I could install it via the plugin manager. Tc and be blessed.

Re: editor Re: final score
Yeah is there a line editor I could use? I thought lilly pond had line numbers on by default but the since the prefs option is dimmed for some odd reason I dunno. lol! You are right that it would speed up my progress greatly. is there a line editor that's a guy for mac that you know of that can take .ly files and still compile them correctly? I don't have or use a braille display and have not for years so I'm working with I have which is the lily pond editor for mac osx v 2.16. Tc all and be blessed.

Any way how to make it undimmed so I can see if there is a line numbers thing? This would make it much much easier in solving errors and keeping track of where I am in terms of the piece. or pieces I will be doing this semester and for the next few years. I'm using the editor vim, which shows the line numbers per default. I remember You are using a mac, am I right? Well, I don't know the editors at mac, and You especially have to use a braille editor, correct? If You can get a braille editor for mac with this feature, that would solve it. In Your previous mail You wrote something about beeing not so far after two weeks. An editor with line numbers would extremely increase not only the working tempo, but also the learning tempo, I think. :-) Good luck. :-) Best Regards Roland ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: editor Re: final score
Iuse a screen reader called voice over. It is not that good in the terminal so if line numbers could be enabled in lily pond that would be nice as I could then see where the mistake is and correct it. or copy and paste the relevant line on to the list or what not. Take care. all and be blessed. On Mar 3, 2013, at 9:27 PM, Roland Goretzki rol...@roland-goretzki.de wrote: Hello list, hello Sarah, I don't have or use a braille display and have not for years ... Upps, how can You read without a braille display? I'm not familiar with the lilypond editor, so others could better help You with it. The following only with saying, that vim is an editor with (similar to lilypond) a steep learning curve (but neverthelss the best I know): Vim is also for mac. The vim editor (also for blind) with explanation, but as far as I can see, only in german: http://www.linux-fuer-blinde.de/55-0-texteditor-vim.html The vim-download page for macintosh: http://www.vim.org/download.php#mac HTH Best Regards Roland ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Hello Sarah, My setup it to use TeXShop, which is part of TeXLive, to edit the .ly files. A trick : in order not to lose the current selection or cursor positition when you re-activate an editor window, click in the gray background of its title bar, not in in the text pane below.
