<big>Hi. My name is Roque Morel, I`m a musician, I not hacker, geek,
programmer etc and I wanna talk about NtEd, in my opinion, the real
WYSIWYG music score for Linuxes.<br>
<br>
NtEd is the easiest music score I`d saw. Installation, specially for
me, is not complicated, just I`m a violoncello player.<br>
<br>
Only three steps: ./configure, make, make install and it`s ready to use.<br>
Rare dependencies and libraries does not need it. Where another ones
failed on my favor distro, NtEd got no any trouble.<br>
<br>
Commands are very easy too and it works very well with Timidity or
QJackctl+QSynth.<br>
It supports tuplets and others, up to 4 voices per staff, 5 lyrics
lines, three clefs, exports to GS and MIDI.<br>
<br>
Very important things?<br>
It`s a real page view music score for Linux, it`s easy for musicians,
it is not a too much MB program, it`s nice to work and the more
important point in music: it`s a What You See Is What You Get music
score and is stable.<br>
<br>
Necessary things?<br>
Slurs, bow signals for strings instruments, more clefs and other
musical signs.<br>
<br>
For Mandriva`s users as me, there are some packages in cooker
repositories I asked by bugzilla<br>

Enjoy it and I`m sorry about my English language, it`s so poor... I`m
from Argentina and I speak only a few words.<br>
