ANN: OOoLilyPond 0.5.0

[Klaus Blum]

Dear LilyPond community, 

I am happy to announce a new version of OOoLilyPond - an extension for
LibreOffice/OpenOffice. 
OOoLilyPond enables you to enter LilyPond code from within your Office
document. Both the resulting image and its source code will be embedded
within the document. No need to keep any additional files other than the
Writer/Draw/Impress document itself.

The project has been unmaintained during the last few years. With the
agreement of the original author, the development of the project is now
continued under the roof of openlilylib.org:
https://github.com/openlilylib/LO-ly/releases


Changes since v. 0.4.0:

*   fixed: Runtime error "Variable not defined: line 40 CurserPosition=1"
*   additional include paths can be specified
*   added button to save the current code into temporary file and open it in
external editor
*   added button to re-import code from temporary file back to editor window
*   added support for the use of SVG graphics format (please read the
verbose release notes)
*   fixed: wrong size of vector graphics in Impress/Draw
*   size and crop settings of existing graphics can be preserved
*   user now can choose between two different ways to import graphic into
document
*   font name and font size for editor windows can be specified
*   user interface can be translated into other languages


Compatibility:

OOoLilyPond (OLy) works with recent versions of LibreOffice (5.3.0.3) and
OpenOffice (4.1.3). Older versions should work as well. It has even been
tested with OpenOffice 2.4 without issues.

Any content (LilyPond code, templates, OLy configuration files) created
with/for OLy 0.4.x will work with OLy 0.5.x - and vice versa. (Fully
compatible, forward and backward.)
Older snippets created with OLy 0.3.x will also work with 0.4.x and 0.5.x,
but not (necessarily) vice versa.


Direct download:

Verbose release notes:
https://github.com/openlilylib/LO-ly/releases/download/0.5.0/OOoLilyPond-0.5.0-Release-Notes.txt

The project is also listed in the official extension centers for LibreOffice
and OpenOffice:
https://extensions.libreoffice.org/extensions/ooolilypond
http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/ooolilypond

I hope this will be useful for many people. 

Cheers, 
Klaus
