Hi everybody,

I noticed slight glitches when having a look at the ‘Easier editing’ page on the website. This is the text about Frescobaldi:

> Frescobaldi is a lightweight, yet powerful, music and text editor with many features added and enhanced particularly for LilyPond. Major features include point-and-click links between the code and music views, detailed score wizards, built in LilyPond documentation browser, syntax highlighting and automatic completion. Frescobaldi is written in Python, with PyQt4 for its user interface, and will run on all major operating systems (GNU/Linux, Mac OS X and Windows).

I’m not a native speaker, so help me out here: the two commas encompassing ‘yet powerful’ seem German to me. Is that idiomatic English? Also: built in or built-in?

I obviously can't comment on those.


Next, I’d suggest writing just PyQt instead of updating it to PyQt5, to avoid the necessity of further updates. Is that a good idea?


I'm not sure, but in any case it's inconsistent (now). It should either be "Python" and "PyQt" or "Python 3" and "PyQt5". Your reasoning is good, but since these versions are a matter for installing, so it might as well be a good idea to keep them (i.e. add the "3").

I’ll propose a patch when these are answered.


If you do you so you might consider also adding "an integrated manuscript viewer" to the list of features.

Best
Urs

Best, Simon
