Hi Luis !

Ouch, no dynamics after the initial mf. Seriously, Umeko's LP code needs 
a complete rewrite, I'll fix the dynamics and a dozen other things that 
bother me now. IIRC, the code was last updated for LP 2.6. Btw, some of 
the missing rests are hidden, typically for space. I'll try to do better 
next time.

Btw, I've used vim for some editing jobs Frescobaldi doesn't do so well. 
Hard to beat it for things like

%s/foo/foobar/g

It's good to be around. :)  I'll post a note here when the article is 
published. It won't be soon, they want an article on Csound asap, but I 
admit that I got diverted by Frescobaldi. So now I have to finish the 
other article, then I can complete the one on LP. And then they want one 
on SuperCollider3. Of course I'm going to look at ways LP integrates (or 
not) with those systems, via FOMUS, LilyCollider, and whatever else I 
can find, hopefully from suggestions here. Since you're a fellow 
Csounder, can you suggest ways to link that system with LP ? IIRC Csound 
has some support for MusicXML, but I've never tested it.

Thanks for looking at the scores, and thanks especially for the 
suggestions for improvement.

Best,
