While perusing the main LilyPond website, in the announcements section, I
only just discovered the online software Scorio that acts as a GUI front
end to LilyPond 2.16. Does anyone on this list actually use it? I don't
think I ever will for a number of reasons, but I was just curious if anyone
else does.I did subscribe for a (free) account but had forgotten about it until I
read your post. I guess that shows clearly how much I have used it ;-)
I guess it could be interesting for iPads or chromebooks. But I don't see
a reason to use online apps if I can do things much faster and much better
offline.
On http://www.scorio.com/web/scorio/platform I read this:
"The superb music notation, which is based on the principles of
classical sheet music engraving, is guaranteed by using LilyPond as a
sheet music generator. The aesthetically balanced arrangement of notes
among multiple systems takes place automatically. LilyPond is regarded by
experts as being one of the finest sheet music generators available today.
The modular design of the platform will allow the future integration of
sheet music generators other than LilyPond."
It would be nice if the Scorio people would give something back to the
LilyPond community for this "superb music notation" that they use to make
some money. Like improved MusicXML import/export. But I don't really count
on it.
