  chords and notes (awaiting fully fledged editing support through ly.music or

- properly support drum notes in ly.lex and ly.music

  - support for isolated durations (a single duration without
    explicit pitch)
  - support for implicit starting pitch in relative mode
    (issues #18 and frescobaldi/frescobaldi#648)

### Fixed

- Fix TypeError: expected string or buffer in dom.ly when string was a
  dom.Reference (#667 on Frescobaldi repository)

### Changed

- Updated LilyPond data to 2.18

## [0.9] - 2015-03-07

### Added

- Added ly.rests containing various rest manipulations
- A script `xml-export.ily` has been included to dump the music structure
  inside LilyPond to an XML file. This is not used yet, but could be used in the
  future to use LilyPond to parse files and build music, and then export it
  to other formats.

### Changed

- Robust Python 3 support, Python 3 is now recommended, although 2.7 will
  still be supported for the foreseeable future.
- MusicXML export improvements

## [0.5] - 2015-01-21

### Changed

- Large MusicXML export improvements, contributed by Peter Bjuhr (MusicXML
  export is still experimental)

### Fixed

- Don't transpose chord argument of \stringTuning command
- Python 3 robustness improvements

## [0.4] - 2014-03-05

### Changed

- Small MusicXML export improvements, contributed by Peter Bjuhr (MusicXML
  export is still very experimental)

### Fixed

- Fix transposing when alterations would be more than a double sharp or double
  flat; handle it by moving the note, just like LilyPond does it

### Added

- New command 'highlight' ('hl') to create syntax-highlighted HTML files of
  LilyPond source files (or any file that is understood by ly.lex)

## [0.2] - 2014-01-08

### Added
