  Dear List Member.

  I have problems with the mail list. My mail Graham
  answered generously is returned. Probably because
  of the size > 400 kb. I'll send the picture to graham
  only -- if you don't disagree -- and hope this will help.
  Sorry

  Best regards,

Ok, here the next few changes:
 * new "stand alone" box for frescobaldi
 * LilyKDE before TeXShop to mention graphical first
 * new svn link for TextMate (still ignored)
 * new box for "Other programs can export LilyPond code"
   * order tools using subsubsections:
      first graphical, second text/command line

Yes, it's CSS related. The new box for "Other programs can export LilyPond 
code" will avoid the collision.

I'm used to PDF with hyperlinks from LaTeX. But a printout with clickable url 
is still science fiction ;-) This become part of the todo list.

Sorry, I should have read the manual before asking. I meant the "@/" like in:
@uref{http://@/www@/.rosegardenmusic@/.com,Rosegarden}
-> They allow page breaks in the printout.
