I just want to be able to make video scores like your latest example!
Of course, having the features based on modifying important source code
and unaligned with possible directions of future development is far from
ideal. It's hard to see that these efforts will age well in their
current state. But visual aids like video scores are valuable when
teaching complex choral works to groups that haven't had much experience
with that sort of music. I'm excited to see that it's possible to make
them in LilyPond. Go, Knut!
