Re: Guitar Tab / Bends
I will look into this and read back up on the contributing docs. It's been a while, but since I do software every day now, I hope learning will be quicker!

I'm not using LilyPond much these days, but I do have several scores using this new bending feature and it's working pretty good.

Re: Openlilylib status
Hi Andrew I was just waiting for an update (and feeling your pain about the server) before using OLL in a ‘real’ project. I’ve gotten familiar with most of it now and it is certainly worth keeping alive. I would use it but I worry about fragility. My python skills are too limited for the deeper tasks, but my offer for testing and documentation help stands. I hope that more help is forthcoming - it does strike me as too big for one person.

Guitar Tab / Bends
Hello group, Some years ago, someone developed a capability for LilyPond to notate bending notes on Guitar Tab. Is anyone currently using this capability?
Re: Openlilylib status
Andrew, I would love to get to grips with Openlilylib (specifically, scholarLy) but when I tried to register to its new home when you first announced it, I couldn't get in. Can't remember the precise details now, and there wasn't time to pursue it back then. But I suspect there might be an element of "suppressed demand" for the new site. My first attempts to use Openlilylib in the past came to nought, for lack of understanding. But it remains on my do-list, and I'd be sorry to see the loss of it. with apologies for leading from the rear! -- Graham > > On 3/10/21, 3:21 PM, "lilypond-user on behalf of Andrew Bernard" > andrew.bern...@gmail.com> wrote: > >Hello All, > >Some time ago I took over the management of the Openlilylib project from >Urs Liska, who was forced to cease the work for personal reasons.
