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.
NtEd is the easiest music score I`d saw. Installation, specially for me,
is not complicated, just I`m a violoncello player.
Only three steps: ./configure, make, make install and it`s ready to use.
Rare dependencies and libraries does not need it. Where another ones
failed on my favor distro, NtEd got no any trouble.
Commands are very easy too and it works very well with Timidity or
QJackctl+QSynth.
It supports tuplets and others, up to 4 voices per staff, 5 lyrics
lines, three clefs, exports to GS and MIDI.
Very important things?
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.
Necessary things?
Slurs, bow signals for strings instruments, more clefs and other musical
signs.
For Mandriva`s users as me, there are some packages in cooker
repositories I asked by bugzilla
ftp://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/MandrivaLinux/devel/cooker/cooker/media/contrib/release/nted-0.13.0-1mdv2008.1.i586.rpm

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.
