Aw: Re: Pseudo-handwritten font

[Torsten Hämmerle]

Hello all,

my name is Torsten (Be-3) and I happen to be the author of this little Lilypond Jazz "excursion". ;)

And yes, of course I will publish the coding here, albeit not finished, but I shortly before pressing the send button I got a nice blue screen (thank you, windows!) and had to start over again.

Included will be fonts (a text font and a "music" font) I had to add a few missing characters...

So, hopefully, everything will be ready tonight...

Thanks for all the friendly comments, by the way...

Until then

Torsten

Hi,

Apparently people are very interested by this pseudo-handwritten font
(here on the international mailing list, but French-speaking users
also repeatedly manifest their interest on lilypond-user-fr, and I
guess it is the same for German-speakers).

Thomas (Harm), since you speak German and already got in touch with
the author, could you (well, or someone else) ask him if he will
eventually release the code of this font? And preferably using a
free/libre license (like GPL or OFL)?

If so, we could safely add a feature request to support this
"game changer of strategic importance" in future lilypond releases.

It would be great to have a "music-font" property for each grob
(including each individual Script), to allow people to mix Feta,
Gonville and (if so) this pseudo-handwritten music font in one same
score.

Cheers,
Xavier
