Re: Scholarly footnotes

[Craig Dabelstein]

Hi Urs,

What can I do to help you advance ScholarLY (or any of your other projects)? E.g. do I need to learn scheme? Do I play around with incorporating ScholarLY into Latex? What would be the most helpful for you?

Just shortly:

I do think we'll find a good way for you, and I also think this is a good opportunity to continue work on ScholarLY. Especially considering that just a  few days ago Craig Dabelstein also asked about ScholarLY.

I'm preparing an edition of sixteenth-century polyphony, using the book-titling template[1].  The edition would benefit from some footnotes/endnotes (the sort that say things like: "contratenor 1, bar 99: semiminim A missing in MS").  How best to achieve this, while preserving the "book-titling" appearance? 

Urs' marvellous work on ScholarLy[2] appears ideal, but outputs its annotations in Latex (and might have other problems - see separate thread[3]).  So I'm now wondering how best to integrate this with a published score.  Several possibilities present themselves:

1) lilypond-book[4].  Requires extensive knowledge of Latex, and appears to be targetted at presenting small snippets within musicological papers, rather that large amounts of music with a small number of annotations.

2) Latex with \includepdf[5].

3) musicexamples.sty[6].

4) something else?

I have used Latex (once!) and I'm prepared to do some learning, but I'd welcome advice on the most efficient way to proceed, and the pros-&-cons of each approach.
