Re: ANN: Frescobaldi 3.2

[Jiří Hon]

Hi Wilbert,

thank you very much for the new release of Frescobaldi and especially for the 
parce and quickly packages. Quickly will make my life much easier. Now I'm able 
to find and fix common notation errors in hundreds of scores more reliably, 
without the need for fragile regular expressions. Great work!

Have a nice day,
Jiri Hon
