Dear LilyPond users,
You may have seen Graham's request for LilyPond Frogs, who will fix LilyPond
bugs (trying to fix bugs at an average rate of one per month).
For some of you who are anticipating getting involved in bug-hunting, I have
a simple task to get you involved in modifying the LilyPond source code.
Although I could give this task to one person, I'd prefer to split it among
half-a-dozen Frogs or so.
The task is to add documentation strings for all of the undocumented music
functions shown in Notation Reference 6.1.7. There are approximately 35
undocumented functions. That leaves about 6 per Frog who chooses to get
involve.
This task will be an easy way to get started. It involves editing scheme
files which are available in the binary distribution. No compiling will
need to be done.
You will become familiar with the tools for searching through the source
code to find particular music functions. You will also become familiar with
editing scheme code and creating patches from the edited scheme code.
For convenience, you may choose to use git, which simplifies the creation of
patches.
You will not need to worry about breaking LilyPond; I will take the
responsibility for reviewing, obtaining approval for, and applying your
patches.
If you're interested in signing up as a Frog for this task or for any other
bug you'd like to chase, please let me know.
Thanks, and Happy New Year!
Carl Sorensen
