Frescobaldi is a LilyPond music score editor for KDE4, with following
features:
* Enter LilyPond scores, build and preview them with a mouseclick
* A powerful Score Wizard to quickly setup a musical score
* Advanced point-and-click support: clicking on notes or other objects will put
the text cursor at the correct position, even if you change the document
without re-running LilyPond
* Editing tools:
- advanced syntax coloring that also signals some often made errors
- auto-indent nested structures, those can be folded for quick overview
- context sensitive autocompletion, to quickly enter commands and parameters
- manipulate pitch (transpose, translate, relative/absolute conversion)
- manipulate rhythm (scale, copy/paste durations over other music, etc.)
- hyphenate lyrics
- quickly enter or add articulations and other symbols to existing music
- run the document through convert-ly to update it to a newer LilyPond version
- expansion dialog to enter larger snippets of LilyPond input using short
mnemonics
* A powerful Rumor panel, using the Rumor program to enter music by playing it
on a MIDI keyboard or even your computer keyboard
* Quick buttons to open, send, play or print LilyPond-generated files
* Sessions to easily edit on groups of related files
* Built-in LilyPond documentation browser with editor context menu support
(right-click a command in the editor to lookup its documentation)
