LilyPond 2.5.2

[Han-Wen Nienhuys]

2.5.2 is there.

This release has several goodies, including solfa-notation (shaped
noteheads), and an easier mechanism for customizing title, footer and
header layout. Don't forget to rebuild the fonts, as they have been
changed to accomodate the solfa-notation.


NEWS

   * Pagebreaks can now be forced or forbidden after title blocks. This
     is achieved by setting `breakbefore' to true or false.

   * Shaped note heads. This feature has been sponsored by Jonathan
     Walther.

   * Layout for titles, page header and footer can now be entered as
     `\markup' commands.
