Subject: Re: Fw: Frescobaldi ... panic alternatives? FYI I just made a new release of Spontini editor, with the most recent changes (most notably: support for recent Lilypond versions) As mentioned before, I don't own a MacOS, but the HUGE implemented CI/CD should avoid bad surprises. When I say "huge", I mean it. I always hope that someone decides to host the application, so that it provides the same service that LilyBin previously offered. Please note that you don't have to install anything. Nor the editor, nor LilyPond, and you can switch between multiple LilyPond versions. Anyway, I'm currently the only developer and maintainer of the software, and I need collaboration (most notably for testing). Without it, I'm forced to mark my releases as "alfa" (but it should work...) Reading that last thread about Frescobaldi and its possible disappearance from Mac is causing me to panic. Jean, I did not realize that you were the last person to seriously work on Frescobaldi / Mac. I use Mac exclusively, and Frescobaldi / Lilypond is very important to me. FYI, what I like the most about Frescobaldi are: - Templates and wizards
- Snippets
- Point and Click selection
- Syntax highlighting
If Frescobaldi for Mac does indeed vanish, what are my alternatives for a Lilypond editor?
Although https://github.com/paopre/Spontini is focused on _very different_ tasks than Frescobaldi, it has the features you just mentioned (they are exposed in a somewhat different way, but they should work), including code completion I could not extensively test it in the past months, nor I own a Mac, but thanks to CI/CD it should work on newer versions. I'm planning to make a new release in the next few weeks. Also, at the moment there are no active contributors for it. Therefore, any help is really appreciated...
