+1.4.0
+=====
+
+* RedHat .spec tweaks.
+
+* Bugfix: ly2dvi -o directory/ foo now works.
+
+1.3.153.lec1
+============
+
+* abc2ly fixes:
+  - names in multi-voice music also don't have numbers in them.
+  - No longer using staff_margin_engraver
+
+1.3.154.jcn1
+============
+
+* Don't set LILYPONDPREFIX in login scripts.
+
+* Bugfixes ly2dvi: footer placements and headsep (Mark Hindley).
+
+* Small tweak for braces look.
+
+1.3.154
+=======
+
+* More brace bugfixes. 
+
+* Revert: simplified TFM and PK logic in ly_init_kpath (). Find feta
+fonts in datadir (eg /usr/share/) again, rely on environment in the
+other tools.
+
+* Add .pk font caching for ly2dvi. pk files resulting from running
+dvips are stored in outdir.
+
+1.3.153.jcn2
+============

+
+* PO updates.

+
+1.3.153
+=======
+
+* Some small chord name fixes.
+
+* Added alternative introduction to tutorial; to be merged.
+
+* Reverted simple easy note head function, as some printers seem to
+choke on it (so there are printers that don't use ghostscript?).
+
+* Chord tremolo fixes: shift beams vertically on whole notes.  Center
+beams on whole notes.  'beam-gap' had been renamed to 'gap', but only
+for reading.
+
+1.3.152.jcn3
+============
+
+* Fixed brace font selection: do pick bigger font when needed.
+
+* Increased number of brace fonts; made size step variable. 
+
+1.3.152.hwn1

+
+* Bugfix: horizontal shift amount for note collisions.
+
+* Prevent tuplet bracket/staff line collisions
+

+textheight setting.

+font.  Also fixed lookup.
+
+* Maximum length for lyric-hyphen.
+
+* Two forgotten note corrections to Standchen.
+
+* Website compilation fix.
+
+1.3.151.mb1
+===========
+
+* ly2dvi: add lilypond directories at end of tex paths
+
+* renewed smart-transpose example
+
+1.3.151.hwn1
+============
+
+* Tutorial revision: add much simpler examples in front.
+
+* abc2ly fix for duration at end of line (Laura Conrad)
+
+* centralCPosition is set by \clef as well; this fixes the grace note +
+clef problem. Property clefPitches is deprecated.
+
+* Separating_group_spanner now searches items until it finds a
+non-empty one.  This fixes a problem with lyrics clashes on barlines
+when stanza numbers are on.
+
+* Uniformised progress messages. File names are always printed in quotes.
+
+1.3.151
+=======
+
+* ly2dvi: reverted footer change that broke mutopia endfooter.

+* Standchen revision (found four new bugs).
+
+* Allow multiple multiply for durations, eg: 'R1 * 3/4 * 10'.
+
+* Bugfix for direct PostScript output.
+
+* Compilation fix.
+
+* Windows: possibly ly2dvi fix, tex install, minor doco fixes, fixed
+some urls.

+
+* don't keep remaking lilypond-internals.texi

+
+ 
+1.3.149.jcn3
+============
+
+* Bugfix: markup text: lines with markup.
+
+* Fixed line height in postscript output.
+
+* Windows installer stuff: the ``It shouldn't be hard -- but do need
+  some sleep'' release.
+
+  Think of it: /shouldn't/ is *exactly* why GNU/Linux exists, and
+  why we advise to run LilyPond on Linux -- UMSDOS if you must.
+
+  You may consider our part of the job done.  Any more of this
+  sad and sorry stuff will drive me to drink.  It makes you realise
+  again how much fun using Linux actually is.
+
+  We'll take patches from now on, from people that have a stronger
+  stomach.  Good night.
+
+  - Ly2dvi: run commands from sh (so that tex wrappers be used).
+
+  - Added cygwin man,less and windows gs, gsview, miktex, python to
+    lilypond installer repository.  Moved profile.d setup functionality to
+    postinstall.
+  - Added tex and latex wrappers.

+
+* Make lexer emit FRACTION for N/M (where N, M unsigned numbers). This
+fixes one shift reduce, fixing the problem with multiplied durations
+and inversions.
+
+* Set measureLength and beatLength from the parser. This fixes percent
+repeats that come directly after a time signature change.
+
+* Bugfix: process clef change upon Clef_engraver creation. This fixes
+grace notes beginning a piece; bug with combining clef changes and
+grace notes remains.
+
+* Bugfix: typo in convert-ly rule
+
+* spelling: barsize-procedure -> bar-size-procedure
+
+* fixes for input/test/ (thanks, Laura) 
+

+lineheight in paper block.
+
+* Bugfix: lilypond -o - foo.ly.
+
+* Took a stab at jazz-style chord name additions.
+
+* Compile fixes: gcc-3.0 snapshots hit Debian unstable.  Note that

+* Markup text:
+- added (extent . (min . max))

+when I wrote that code)
+- renamed align to axis
+
+* Fixes for german-chords.ly (Rune).
+

+
+* Oops, I did it again (Han-Wen).
+

+
+* Bugfix: mutopia letter target.
+
+* Some bugfixes and checks for killed spanners, reducing warnings in

+
+* Bugfix: install gettext.py into @datadir@/python and use that path

+original edition.  This revision also revealed fair amount of bugs.
+Previous versions arguably might have worn some small stains of
+editorial decisions dated 1936.  Arguably, because most of these small
+changes can be found in other editions, some of which even are
+commonplace modernisations.
+
+1.3.136
+=======
+
+* Bugfix: set dependency for direction-source in script-engraver. This
+fixes core-dump problem when stacking multiple scripts containing
+staccato dots.
+

+typically). PK files are put in the right spot
+automatically, and dirs are also created automatically.
+
+A change to mktexnam is still required -- add  
+
+	MT_DESTROOT=foobar
+ 
+before line 161.

+490 lines code in stead of 1230.
+
+* Modified kpathsea lookup so it will find system-installed feta TFMs first.
+Now lily doesn't clutter the CWD with .TFM files.  Kpathsea is fun if you like
+pasta.

+============
+
+* Bugfix: fixed point-and-click broken in jcn2.
+
+* convert-ly: Added and fixed various entries

+
+* Bugfix: add functionality of
+Side_position_interface::self_align_callback() into
+Align_interface::align_elements_to_extents(). Otherwise, combining

+leading to weird results.
+
+This fixes input/test/orchestscore.ly
+
+* Bugfix: x-offset of stem was off by 0.5 stem thickness.

+
+* rest collision of differing rests.
+
+* Cleanup of Sequential_music_iterator, Simple_music_iterator.
+
+* Unfolded_repeat_iterator now signals repeats using \property
+  repeatCommands. You could override this, eg.
+
+	\property Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "X") start-repeat)
+
+  will print a |: and a volta bracket saying X. See also
+  input/test/manual-volta.ly
+  
+* Volta_engraver, Repeat_acknowledge_engraver: new engravers that are
+controlled by repeatCommands; much cleaner than the Repeat_engraver.
+
+* Junked Repeat_engraver.
+
+1.3.91.jcn1
+===========
+* Abort all running spanners when part-combiner combines voices.

+
+1.3.90.mb1
+===========
+
+* Added an interscorelinefill paper variable. Set to a positive number 
+  in order to stretch the inter-line spacing to fill the full pages,
+  except for the last page (where it would look really ugly).
+
+1.3.89.jcn1
+===========
+
+* Changed lilypond to LilyPond in ly2dvi, Mudela to LilyPond source.
+
+* Website fixes: Changed \interline to \staffspace in manual, removed offending

+
+1.3.89.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Only open files, not directories 
+
+* bugfix: textNonEmpty.
+
+* Look ahead in auto-change iterator for rests. This means rests
+before the note leading to an automatic staff switch are switched as
+well (improves the looks of scarlatti-test).  Associated fixes and
+additions for  Music_iterator::skip () and friends.
+
+* Bugfix: only quantise staccato inside the staff.

+
+* Fixed some stupid core dumps processing Coriolan.
+
+* Fixed several problems with part-combiner's part-switching.
+
+* Fixes for ASCII output.
+
+* Added feature to part combiner that should allow part-switching only

+    - only switch when !(A mod now),
+    - decide whether to switch based on music during time period B.
+
+* Made bugfix: Sequential_iterator::get_music (M): mustn't return music 
+  later than M.
+
+* Added skip (M) to some iterators.
+
+* maintain minimum-length by shifting for hyphens at start of
+line. (patch courtesy Christophe Rhodes)

+generic-property.scm (but they're deprecated anyway)
+
+* Changed threshold in Align_interface to be in staffspace 
+
+* changed minVerticalAlign and maxVerticalAlign to be in staffspace.
+A better way: do \push #'threshold = #(cons A B ).  (WARNING:
+INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE)
+
+* moved translator definitions out of \paper { }, only instantiate in
+\paper.
+
+1.3.88
+======
+
+* Sequential_iterator::get_music (), part combiner now works.

+
+  Collision
+  -  note-width to Collision
+
+* removed various obsolete variables from params.ly
+
+* added input/test/bagpipe.ly
+
+1.3.87
+======
+
+* Made fixes to part-combine examples and Coriolan.
+
+* Bugfix: don't dump core on unterminated (de)crescendo.
+
+* Rolled next (M) also into get_music (M), similar to process (M), so that
+  sequential-music-iterator::get_music (M) returns something useful.
+
+* Bugfix: part-combiner still expected Music_sequence, where get_music ()
+  now returns plain list of events.
+
+1.3.86.hwn3
+===========
+
+* Fixed problem with disappearing crescendi across line break.
+
+* Bugfix: dynamic texts should not be set by text-engraver. 
+
+* Rewrote and cleaned up music-iterator.
+
+* etf2ly robustness fixes.
+
+1.3.85.hwn2
+===========
+
+* Added side-position-interface as an interface identifier, in stead
+of checking side-support-elements. This fixes a problem with stacked
+text scripts.

+
+1.3.85
+======
+
+* Separated definition and implementation of contexts (moved
+definition out of Translator_group into Translator_def)
+
+* pmx2ly.py fixes: now handles text at beginning of block correctly.
+
+* update .spec to include scripts. 
+
+* Changed syntax of \pushproperty:
+
+	\property Voice.basicXXXProperties \push #'foo = #bar
+	\property basicXXXProperties \pop #'foo
+
+	\translator {
+		basicXXXProperties \push #'foo = #bar
+		basicXXXProperties \pop #'foo
+	}
+
+1.3.84.jcn1
+===========
+
+* Updated INSTALL.texi
+
+1.3.80.tca1
+===========
+* Added Documentation/user/mb-latex.tex, mudela-book+latex example
+  file and test case. Some work on Documentation/user/mudela-book.tely
+
+* mudela-book.py: any combination of \verb, \begin{verbatim}
+  @code and @example and mudela should work as expected. 
+
+* dropped [].extend that depend on python 1.5.2
+
+1.3.84
+======
+
+* pmx2ly, PMX to LilyPond conversion. Succesfully converts barsant.pmx.
+
+* musedata2ly, a Musedata to LilyPond convertor. Succesfully converts

+1.3.83
+======
+
+* small doc updates.
+
+* Cleanups related to barline handling:
+
+  - Removed Translator_group::get_simple_translator (), and -
+
+  - use properties to communicate about barlines and time sigs. (NOTE:
+    by default a time-signature of 4/4 is printed.)
+
+  - fix repeat bar behavior.
+
+1.3.115.hwn1
+============
+
+* documentation
+
+* 
+
+* cleaned up Directional_element_interface
+
+* add name field to score-elements.
+
+* comment in some unprotects for Music in parser. Should bring down
+  cpu time and plug some leaks.
+
+* robustness fixes for etf2ly, tuplets, grace notes. 
+
+1.3.82
+======
+
+* engraver.ly: cleanups.
+
+* etf2ly: robustness fixes, handle mac files as well.
+
+* Smobified Translator and Translator_group, junked
+Translator_group_identifier.
+
+* \pushproperty and \popproperty withing \translator, similar to
+predefining \property, ie.
+
+	\translator { [...] \pushproperty [..] }
+	\translator { [...] \popproperty [..] }
+
+(these \pushes and \pops are delayed until instantiation, so if you do
+
+
+	\score {
+		\pushproperty #'basicFooProperties #'bla #VALUE1
+		\context Voice { \pushproperty #'basicFooProperties #'bar #VALUE2
+			[..]
+		}
+	}
+
+then the setting for basicFooProperties contains both (bla . VALUE1)
+and (bar . VALUE2).
+
+* allow \pushproperty #'symbol [..] as well as \pushproperty #'(symbol1 symbol2 ... )
+
+1.3.81.jcn1

+
+* Activated regex for windows.
+
+* New guile-1.4 patch for cross windows build.
+
+* Added configure messages for metapost checking.
+
+1.3.81
+======
+1.3.80.gp1
+==========
+
+* Added property LyricVoice.associatedVoice to enable switching associated
+  voice mid-stream. Association still defaults to context name.
+
+1.3.80.hwn1
+===========
+
+* \pushproperty, \popproperty: property settings with less memory
+cost. See input/test/pushproperty.ly and Documentation/hacking. Note:
+syntax is most likely only temporary.
+
+1.3.80.jcn1
+===========
+
+* (Line-)broken slurs now have vertical trend.
+
+* Better length for broken ties: no invisibly short ties.  Now ties may
+  collide with time signatures, though.
+
+* Don't typeset unfinished spanners, but kill them.
+
+* Added two FAQs (Mats)
+
+* Made workaround guile-1.4.1 backward incompatible (scm_)eval change.
+  Note that we must use (scm_)eval2 to remain backwards compatible with
+  guile < 1.4.1 snapshot.
+
+* Reincluded 79.jcn2 fix
+
+1.3.80
+======
+
+1.3.79.jcn5
+===========
+
+* Created Thread_devnull_engraver and Voice_devnull_engraver iso
+  single A2_devnull_engraver in Thread context.  It seems however
+  that the hack in A2_devnull_engraver works better.
+
+* Coriolan fixes.
+
+* Slur attachment fix for chords where case slurdir != stemdir.
+
+* Made various fixes for (line-)broken slurs.
+
+* Fixed slur_height (), which fixes most ugly slurs (Yeah!).
+
+* Fixed some silly url reversals in FAQ.
+
+* Finished Coriolan music entry (again); entered second viola part.
+
+* Updated Coriolan to use part combiner on Voice level for wind parts
+  and on Staff level for violi and bassi.
+
+* Part-combiner now uses duration inquiry, which fixes rhythm-related
+  bugs in determining solo/a2.  Also, rests are taken into account.
+
+* Another crude fix for almost unexplainable (with a gdb that dumps
+  core on ly_display_scm) all-zero control points slurs.
+
+* Fixed slurs that crossed through stems and note heads.  Note
+  that beautifying of ugly slurs is still broken.
+
+* Made crude fixes slurs don't crash, bezier still crashes on
+  infinitely steep slurs (eg flauti-part *with* slur_engraver).
+
+1.3.79.gp1
+==========
+
+* Replaced empty melisma score element with a property
+
+* Renamed Voice_alist_entry -> Syllable_group in lyric-phrasing-engraver

+* Mark_engraver: has been broken since .73, fixed!
+
+1.3.78
+======
+
+* Added a devnull engraver, that junks (notehead) requests of the second
+  stem when combined parts are in unison (a2).
+
+* Part-combine iterator identifies Soli and A2 parts in threads by 
+  looking at rhythm and pitches.  It switches Voice context automagically,
+  and communicates current state using a2/solo/solo2 properties.
+
+* Simple A2_engraver (`a due) prints `a2/Solo/Solo II.  Soli seem to
+  arrive one request late.
+
+* First try at combining parts: part-combine*
+
+* fixed problem with HaraKiri
+
+* fixed problem with dynamicDirection
+
+* fixed problem with nonEmptyText 
+
+* `Fixed' chord notation, as per request of David Arnold, ie, 
+   Added a chord-name-mode, that only displays chord names
+   when there's a change in the chord-name-scheme, Also, a chord
+   name should always be displayed after a line break.  See
+
+       input/test/chord-changes.ly
+
+* Reverted duration-iter change in midi2ly, moved printing of options.
+
+* warning bugfix in lexer.ll (Mats Bengtsson)
+
+1.3.77
+======
+
+* Midi2ly bugfix: handle durations longer than longa.  These can occur
+  because of lengthened notes when using --no-rests.
+
+* Midi2ly: output `new' \key syntax, and updated version number.
+
+* Midi2ly bugfix: don't correct quantised durations, don't use tuplets, 
+  double dots etc. when user doesn't want them.  It probably used to
+  work like this, a long time ago.  For some unknown reason, all
+  corrections made by Duration_convert were junked if the corrected
+  duration != exact duration.  Duh.
+
+* Midi2ly: added a new option: --no-rests.
+
+* Update of mudela-book (Tom Cato Amundsen)
+ - --read-lys option, now you can do:
+ 	mudela-book file.texi
+	convert-mudela
+	mudela-book --read-lys
+ - --outdir=DIR will put ALL output into DIR
+ - @mudela[filename="myfilename"]{c d e f g}
+ - --force-mudela-fontsize
+ - ignore mudela inside @ignore @end ignore

+======
+
+* Made callbacks from Score_element::before_line_breaking() and
+Score_element::after_line_breaking()
+
+* Fixed website; backlinks should work again.
+
+* Removed --ignore-version option. Added --verbose option.
+
+1.3.61
+======
+
+* Webpage hacking
+
+1.3.60.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Junk int_identifier, real_identifier. Merged Midi_def_identifier and
+Paper_def_identifier.
+
+* Fixed bug with spanning barlines in combination with Hara-Kiri staffs.
+
+* Cleaned up Text_item, Hyphen_spanner, Lyric_extender and
+Sustain_pedal and reduced them to an Score_element interface (they are
+no longer Score_element derived types).
+
+* Some instances of brew_molecule routines have moved out of
+Score_element, and are now called scheme_molecule.
+
+* Moved lots of parameters from ly/params.ly to ly/engraver.ly
+
+1.3.59.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Removed String_identifier, and use the type system of GUILE instead.
+
+* Fixed \key PITCH MODALITY syntax. The modality argument is now
+mandatory, a rule in convert-mudela has been added.
+
+* Cleaned up  buildscripts/ directory: removed obsolete scripts.
+
+* Use Scheme_hash_table for identifier Scopes.  Scheme_hash_table is
+based on STL and should be faster than hash_table.
+
+
+1.3.59.jcn1
+===========
+
+* Fixed scm_un/protect_object for guile-1.3.4 and 1.3.5 snapshots,
+  in the process reduced number of protect/unprotect calls.  With
+  guile-1.3.5 snapshot, memory usage has decreased by 1/5th, now
+  just 10% above the 1.2 level.  Also, Lily's a bit faster.
+
+* Fixed make diff bug in stepmake to be able to make this diff :-)
+
+1.3.58.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Rewrote key sig support.  Now key signature can also be controlled
+by setting keySignature and localKeySignature properties, eg.
+
+	\property keySignature = #'((2 . -1) ( 4 . -1) (6 . -1))
+
+sets a key signature of `es ges bes' (an unusual key signature).
+
+Keys are internally represented as transpositions of the c-major
+scale. Printing the key signature for a scale is done by filtering out
+all non-natural accidentals.
+
+* Removed support for \keysignature, and \key something \minor; Newkey
+is now obsolete.
+
+1.3.58.jcn3
+===========
+
+* Fixed pedal items (hw)
+
+* Changed configure option tex-tmfdir to tmf-path now accepting multiple
+  tfm directories.  Automated links to cmr and amstex tfm font directories.
+
+* Replaced one scm_assoc () u-turn slipped through jcn1
+
+* various GUILE 1.3.5 compile fixes
+
+* Added `Ped' as a compound symbol font and removed silly scheme kerning.
+
+* Replaced some scheme assoc u-turns with scm_assoc ()
+
+* Ran po-update (mostly because of new ja contribution).
+
+1.3.57.jcn2
+===========
+
+* Cleaned-up scheme list to text conversion for Chord_name and 
+fixed horizontal kerning.
+
+* Added examples for american (slashed o) and jazz (black triangle),
+  see input/test/{american-chords.ly,jazz-chords.ly}
+
+* Made guile-1.3.5 compile fixes
+
+1.3.57.uu1
+==========
+
+* Fixed typo in Dots::do_brew_molecule (); this fixes the disappearing
+dots problem.
+
+* Rewrote key signature administration; now Scheme is used; Octave and
+Key have been junked in favor of Newkey.
+
+* japanese .po file included (thanks, Japanese team!)
+
+1.3.57
+======
+
+* Fixed several forgotten molecule-callbacks 
+
+* Fixed first clef in score; now F clefs are also possible.
+
+1.3.56.mb1
+=========
+ 
+* Updated FAQ with two useful GDB macros.
+
+* Several fixes in the documentation.
+
+1.3.55.jcn1
+===========
+
+* Made (dutch) po-update
+
+1.3.56
+===========
+
+* Molecules are now generated via callbacks exclusively; most calls to
+set_elt_property ("transparent", SCM_BOOL_T) have been replaced by suicide().
+
+1.3.55
+======
+
+* Experimental property collapse for most score-elements.  (notable
+exceptions: Scripts, pedals). Change all Score_element constructors to
+take a basic-property list. The suffix of a property list may be
+shared by several score-elements, for instance all default G-clefs in
+a score share the following settings
+  
+	   (breakable . #t)
+	   (break-align-symbol . Clef_item)
+	   (visibility-lambda . ,begin-of-line-visible) 
+
+This should reduce memory usage further. 
+
+* Magically fixed the disappearing Lyrics problem.
+
+* Removed used_b_ field from Score_element.  
+
+* Massive search-replace patch: store pointers and properties
+separately, in preparation of property collapse.
+
+
+1.3.54
+======
+
+* Bugfix: don't crash on tuplet spanners that don't contain any notes.
+
+* Cleanup of Dimension_cache: removed a few redundant
+fields. Slightly lower memory usage (32 bytes per
+score-element). Dimension_cache is now a `dumb' struct again.
+
+* Add array index to priority field of text scripts to ensure that
+order is unique, and sensible.
+
+* Added an element count statistic.
+
+1.3.53
+======
+
+* russian.po (thank you, August.)
+
+* Small cleanups in Molecule interface 
+
+* Spacing related elements perform suicide after calculating
+distances.  This saves a some memory, approximately 2 to 5 % ?
+
+* Small cleanups in line breaking: Paper_column stores springs and
+rods in only one place now.  All fields relating to energy have been
+removed
+
+* Don't generate all output Scheme in memory, but evaluate to output
+file immediately.  This will reduce memory usage a little.
+
+* Use STL's map  for Dictionary template
+
+* Substitute pointers on element properties of the root Line_of_score
+as well.
+
+* Added toplevel doc target, to support building doc with --srcdir
+
+* Removed cygwin build stuff; updated versions at:
+
+     http://appel.dyndns.org/lilypond/gnu-windows/cross
+
+* Fixed lily.scm to handle incipits (thanks, Mats)
+
+
+1.3.52
+======
+
+* Made bugfix in smob handling: delete the C-part of freed smobs and
+be honest about amount of allocation and deletion, so that GUILE
+doesn't overestimate the amount of memory available.
+
+* Faq update: nicer blank note paper, courtesy Mats Bengtsson.
+
+* Bugfix: don't crash on durations that are not a power of 2.
+
+* Build manpages during `make all' 
+ 
+* Bugfix: don't do absolute comparisons in Polynomial::clean ().
+
+* Bugfix: set visibility-lambda for key signature created by
+createKeyOnClefChange. Fixes disappearing key signatures. 
+
+* Bugfix: make System_start_delimiter of bar-line type invisible when
+it spans only one staff.
+
+1.3.51
+======
+
+* Item cleanups.  Copying items and rearranging pointers are done in
+separate passes, which makes the code cleaner. This fixes a problem
+with some items not disappearing from hara-kiri staffs.
+
+* Use Scheme for Key_item data members. 
+
+* Don't use regex in chord-names.scm under windows; hybrid chordnames
+user+calculated will be partly broken.
+
+1.3.50
+======
+
+* Junked Shift_tuple from collision; Now it uses SCM.
+
+* Bugfix of documentation and test-file of tuplet.
+
+* Bugfix type string of repeated music is copied. This fixes declared
+tremolos.
+
+* Junked various cruft from lily.scm
+
+* Use interfaces symbols instead of C++ class-name for assigning generic
+element properties.
+
+* Junked Dictionary from Piano_pedal_engraver and
+Piano_pedal_performer.
+
+* Introduced boolean element property no-spacing-rods: ignore this
+item for hard constraints.
+
+* Bugfix: added sanitised TeX fragment in faq.texi
+
+* Bugfix: merge equal Bar_reqs
+
+1.3.48.uu1
+==========
+
+* Small fixes for \cresc and \endcresc
+
+* Release properties of unbroken spanners & items after doing
+handle_broken_smobs (); should conserve a little memory.
+
+* Fixed handling of orphaned score-elements. Any element that does
+not have its Line_of_score as a ancestor in both directions, is silently
+removed from the output.  This guarantees that programming errors
+don't result in coredumps from Dimension_cache::common_refpoint ():
+element->line_l () is always a common reference point.
+
+* Bugfix: set visibility-lambda of clef and octavation-8 explicitly
+for default case.  Now the octavation 8 is not printed at every
+barline.
+
+1.3.48.mb1
+===========
+
+* Changed noteHeadStyle properties to symbols, for example
+  \property Voice.noteHeadStyle = #'cross
+
+1.3.47.jcn3
+===========
+
+* Rewrite of chord-name production in scheme.  There are two major styles
+  now, banter and american.  To get american style, use
+
+      \property ChordNames.chordNameStyle = "american"
+ 
+  Most anything should be possible now.  See input/test/american-chords.ly
+
+* Added isinf check to configure.in, and isinf macro from guile to
+  bezier.cc; solaris has no isinf ().
+
+* Fixed star-spangled-banner with not-so-nice \bar "|." fix.  Almost
+  perfect now.
+
+* Added output property to regression test.
+
+* Fixed warning of creating existing outdir.
+
+* Added `Mark' interface to text-items that are marks (thanks, HW).
+
+1.3.48
+======
+1.3.47.mb2
+===========
+
+* Corrected glossary.tely
+
+* Corrected \mark font handling. feta-nummer font only of the 
+  string is all numeric.
+
+* Implemented noteHeadStyle lookup in Guile. Reintroduced the style
+  "harmonic" and added "baroque" (normal note shapes except for 
+  brevis and longa which are square).
+
+* Simplified ly2dvi using the power of the geometry package.
+
+* Improved heuristic size calculation of TeX macros. Handles e.g.
+  "\\u{a}", "\\"{o}" and "\\^{u}" correctly.
+
+1.3.47.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Bugfix: don't hang on zero-duration.
+
+* Various glossary updates (thanks, Christian)
+
+1.3.47
+======
+
+1.3.46.jcn2
+===========
+
+* Drastically reduced vertical space used by headers/footers, when using
+  ly2dvi.  See input/test/fill-a4.ly.
+
+* Fixed bug with colons appearing on repeat span-bars.
+
+* Added Bar_number_engraver to standard Score context
+
+* Construct octavation scripts in the clef-engraver; this fixes the
+hara-kiri + clef8 problem
+
+1.3.46
+======
+
+1.3.45.jcn2
+===========
+
+* Fixed chord-name customisation and made small chord-name build fixes.
+
+* Accidentals with chord-names smaller and as superscript.
+
+* Do some extra footify (works only once) while making html docs.  
+
+1.3.45.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Debian patch (Thanks Anthony)
+
+* Rewrote Bar_number_engraver and Mark_engraver and removed
+Bar_script_engraver as baseclass. Both Bar_number_engraver and
+Mark_engraver are simpler and more robust.
+
+* Fixed precedence of \property verticalDirection and dynamicDirection
+
+* Fixed keys without barlines 
+
+* Fixed StaffGroups: removing `\consistsend "Axis_group_engraver"'
+puts alignment in function again
+
+* Fixed StaffGroup + GrandStaff combination.
+
+* Music is now mandatory as the first thing in a \score{} block
+
+1.3.45
+======
+1.3.44.jcn2
+===========
+
+* Implemented una-chorda and sostenuto piano pedals in performer and engraver.
+
+* Added Properties textScriptWordSpace and chordNameWordSpace.
+
+* Junked old lyrics in star-spangled-banner.
+
+* Added a Piano_pedal_engraver.
+
+* Removed some empty files.
+
+* Created piano pedal symbols: * - . P e d.
+
+* Fixed ps-to-pfa.py to handle multiple unfills.
+
+* Moved accordion symbols out of feta-script to end of font.
+
+* Bugfix: don't create tfm's, pfa's etc of feta-test fonts.
+
+* Fixed blot_diameter for small resolutions.
+
+1.3.43
+======
+
+* Put global element list into Line_of_score, instead of
+Paper_score. post processing (the stage after line breaking) is now
+truly done per-system, and we got rid of an ugly hack to get font
+handling OK.
+
+* Bugfix: set the group-interface of System_start_delimiter.
+
+* Cleanups of Break_algorithm and derived classes, Move
+broken_col_range () to Line_of_score, remove Paper_score::col_l_arr_
+
+* Bugfix for accordion symbols.
+
+* Various patches to prevent crashing when do_brew_molecule gets
+called before after_line_breaking (). This was a problem in Spanner
+classes mostly.
+
+1.3.43
+======
+
+1.3.42.jcn3
+===========
+
+* Made a quick try at piano pedal performer, damper pedal only.
+
+* mf/feta-accordion.mf: Fixed strange turning paths.
+
+* mf/feta-beugel.mf: Fixed infinity errors.
+
+* Use a more discriptive name for windows setup.zip.
+
+* mf/GNUmakefile: Have logs as last target, so that normally, they're 
+not made twice.
+
+* stepmake/stepmake/metafont-rules.make: Don't remove the .log files.
+The logs are a target, removing them retriggers make.
+
+* stepmake/stepmake/metapost-rules.make: Remove the correct log and tfm
+files, ie the ones that clutter the source directory, not the target logs.
+
+* Windows distribution: faked symlink for cmtfm.  Setup.zip should now be
+standalone; ie, no need for Cygnus' usertools anymore.
+
+1.3.42.jbr1
+===========
+  
+* Documentation/ntweb: Updated angels.ly to match current syntax.
+Also updated index.texi.
+
+1.3.42.uu1
+==========
+
+* Change all occurances of Staff_margin_engraver to
+Instrument_name_engraver, add a convert-mudela rule
+
+* Change status == busy assert into programming error
+
+1.3.42
+======
+
+1.3.41.jcn3
+===========
+
+* Lots of fixes to windows distribution scripts.
+
+* Added configuration features --program-prefix, --program suffix.
+
+* lily/my-lily-parser.cc (get_chord): Bugfix, don't use deleted pitch.
+This fixes inversions c/g and bass additions d/+c on chords.
+
+1.3.41.mb1
+==========
+
+* Avoid that xxxXXXVerticalExtent is used for empty HaraKiriStaff
+  lines.
+
+1.3.41.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Debian patches (thanks Anthony!)
+
+* Use symbols for prefatory matter spacing. Do not use the typename
+for looking up item pairs in the table, but read element property
+break-align-symbol
+
+* Instrument_name_engraver, uses break alignment instead of
+side-position.
+
+* System_start_delimiter_engraver, System_start_delimiter, uses a
+spanner for the braces/brackets at the left of the system. Remove all
+old Span_score_bar engravers.
+
+* Removed Base_span_bar_engraver::use_prority_b_, and moved
+Base_span_bar_engraver into Span_bar_engraver.
+
+1.3.40.jcn3
+===========
+
+* mutopia/Coriolan/violino-2.ly: Bugfix: wrong pitch.
+
+* input/test: Removed stale AutoStaffSwitch examples.
+
+* mutopia/E.Satie: Fixed gnossiene-4, doing \autochange.  Removed
+stale copy of gnossiene-4.
+
+* buildscripts/make-cygwin-cross.sh: Made some small .zip package fixes.
+
+* make/lilypond.spec.in: Made some bugfixes for _prefix, preparations
+for cross-building to Cygwin.
+
+* buildscripts/make-cygwin-cross.sh: Now using rpm packages.
+
+1.3.40.hwn2
+===========
+
+* added \property XXXMinimumVerticalExtent, \property XXXExtraVerticalExtent
+
+* New_chord_tremolo_engraver: make tremolo beams from
+
+	\repeat "tremolo" NUMBER <Music-expression>
+
+Removed support for "old-style" tremolos.
+
+* Add a convert-mudela function for the conversion "\key A;" to "\key a; 
+
+* Read \property measurePosition within the engraver code, instead of
+looking up the Timing_translator.
+
+* star-spangled-banner.ly: add Bar_engraver to LyricsVoice 
+
+* Changed all .fly and .sly files to .ly files.  Propose to dump .fly
+and .sly.
+
+1.3.40
+======
+
+1.3.39.jbr1
+===========
+
+* buildscripts/mf-to-table.py: feta dep files are now opened with write
+  binary option.  This avoids carriage return linefeed problems and
+  windows while not affecting unix.
+
+* Documentation/hacking.texi: Fixed a texinfo syntax error
+
+* stepmake/bin/package-zip32.sh: Fixed or Removed some legacy, 1.2.x,
+  directory paths.
+
+* Documentation/ntweb/index.texi: Fixed broken links, added 1.3.39 links.
+
+1.3.39.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Glossary updates by Christian Mondrup.
+
+* Bugfix: use generic properties in lyrics too. This fixes the
+\property textStyle for lyrics.
+
+* Score_element::preset_extent(), used by \property
+XXXVerticalExtent, so hard code the size of a vertical group. 
+
+* Don't fix up reference points for originals of broken
+spanners. Fixes spurious "orphaned score-element" warnings.
+
+* buildscripts/make-cygwin-cross.sh: Use rx-1.5 instead of regex (Jeffrey).
+
+* scm/lily.scm: Fixed check for Windows: by default don't use scm regex.
+
+* Documentation/ntweb/guile-1.3.4-gnu-windows.patch: Significantly smaller
+patch for guile.
+
+* buildscripts/make-cygwin-cross.sh: Compile native package GNU regex,
+which should fix Windows problems with guile.  Also added input directory
+to zip file.
+
+* stepmake/aclocal.m4: Added decent checking for version of guile, and 
+fixed warning message.
+
+* lily/lexer.ll (My_lily_lexer): Bugfix: lookup chordmodifiers in the
+chord-modifier table (not in the pitch list).
+
+1.3.39
+======
+
+1.3.38.hwn2
+===========
+
+* General cleanups of My_lily_parser. 
+
+* Start of a Chord_tremolo_iterator for the `\repeat 4 "tremolo"'
+syntax.
+
+* Moved Score_element::do_space_processing out of the dependency
+mechanism.
+
+* Use Scheme for notename tables.  Removed uppercase letters for low
+octave notes. Removed Notename_table.
+
+* Fixed core dump with declared "\key  ; "
+
+* Extra robustness warning for Side_position_interface::aligned_on_self ()
+
+* Extra robustness: make sure that first and last columns are breakable.
+  	
+1.3.38.jcn4
+===========
+
+* stepmake/aclocal.m4: Added support for cross-compiling with guile.
+
+* buildscripts/make-cygwin-cross.sh: A try at dropping cygwin1.dll
+ dependency by using mingw.  Compiling guile is too much to ask
+ for mingw, though.  Also:
+ - rename python scripts .py (request from Alain)
+ - install native packages under their own, separate root. (Alain)
+
+* lily.scm: Don't use regex module when running on
+Windows. (Shamus)
+
+* lily/staff-margin-engraver.cc (acknowledge_element): If
+possible, hang y-axis of margin script to span-bar.  This fixes
+vertical placement of margin scripts attached to staff groups.
+
+* help2man-rules.make: Fixes for generating manpages by copying
+and for building using --scrdir.
+
+* stepmake/stepmake/generic-targets.make: Preserve date stamp of
+config.h, version.hh files file when copying.
+
+* buildscripts/make-cygwin-cross.sh: made number of fixes:
+	- add `Cygnus/' prefix to directories in .zip-file too.
+	- package guile too.
+	- don't link to cygwin1.dll
+
+* stepmake/stepmake/install-targets.make: bugfix, don't fail if directory
+  is not emty when uninstalling.
+	
+* stepmake/stepmake/generic-targets.make: added man target.
+
+* buildscripts/make-cygwin-cross.sh: new script for cross-building cygwin
+  development tools and lilypond executable.
+
+* Documentation/ntweb/lilypond-manpages.patch: provide pre-built
+  manpages, so that make doesn't fail on help2man trying to execute
+  a GNU/windows executable.	
+
+* Documentation/ntweb/guile-1.3.4-gnu-windows.patch: new patch for
+  guile-1.3.4.  
+
+* flower/libc-extension.cc (memmem): cygwin compile fix.
+
+1.3.38
+======
+
+1.3.37.hwn1
+===========
+
+* (generic-property.scm) added \property tieDash to set dashing on
+ties.
+
+* Removed  ly_eval_str(), we should use scm_eval (Scm_object).
+
+* Removed scm_to_array (), array_to_scm (), associated junk. Reverted
+undocumented .29 patch that made Bezier::control_ into an
+Array<Offset>.  Added some comments documenting the reasons for the
+changes.
+
+* Revert generic-property.scm of .37 fix, fix the real problem in
+property-engraver.cc: use the right symbol to check if element
+property is already set.
+
+1.3.37.jcn2
+===========
+
+* Fixed srcdir build, so that you can do:
+
+      tar xzf releases/lilypond-x.y.z
+      mkdir <build>
+      cd <build>
+      ../lilypond-x.y.z/configure
+      make
+
+  as with any other gnu package.  All build output goes to <build>/out.
+
+* Changed and fixed use of different configurations, and different output
+  directories.  Finally, you can use different configurations alongside
+  eachother.  From make/stepmake.make:
+
+      # Use alternate configurations alongside eachother:
+      #
+      #     ./configure --enable-config=debug
+      #     make conf=debug
+      #
+      # uses config-debug.make and config-debug.h; output goes to out-debug.
+      #
+
+      # Use same configuration, but different output directory:
+      #
+      #     make out=www
+      #
+      # uses config.make and config.h; output goes to out-www.
+      #
+
+
+* Fixed performance of (de)crescendi.
+
+* Better documentation for arithmetic_multiplier and arithmetic_basicspace
+  in params.ly.
+
+* Added instrument-equaliser for MIDI output, see scm/midi.scm, and
+  properties midiMinimumVolume, midiMaximumVolume, ranges [0,1].
+
+* Changed absolute midi volume settings into factor of full scale.
+
+* Fixed another dynamic-line-spanner bug, it gets hairy.
+
+* Added warning for spanners that are not fully contained in parent spanner.
+
+
+1.3.37
+======
+1.3.36.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Abstract Align_element into Align_interface. Removed
+Axis_align_{item,spanner}, Align_element, Super_element, all multiple
+inheritance in the backend.
+
+* new Gade score, INSTALL.texi fixes (thanks, Mats)
+
+* Removed Item::hpos_f (), Score_element::{get,set}_real ()
+
+* comments detailing properties for Axis_group_interface,
+Side_position_interface, Score_element, Item and Spanner
+
+1.3.36.jcn3
+===========
+
+* Fixed vertical dimensions of elements in dynamic line spanner by adding
+  axis-group to dynamic line spanner.
+
+* Bugfix: line-spanner lasts always full duration of (de)crescendi.
+
+* Bugfix: broken (de)crescendi on a dynamic-line-spanner.
+
+* Bugfix: compilation dynamic-engraver.
+
+* Added and updated a faq about postscript and ghostscript.
+
+* Fixed order of slurVerticalDirection verticalDirection in
+  generic-property.scm.  Similar fixes for Stem, Tie, etc.
+
+* Added a Text_engraver to GraceContext.  Maybe it was removed on
+  purpose: scripts on grace notes seem broken, they appear on the
+  main note.
+
+* Bugfix: volume effect of (de)crescendi was sometimes wrong way round.
+
+1.3.36
+======
+1.3.35.hwn1
+===========
+
+* textEmptyDimension changed into textNonEmpty, default: off,
+ie. texts don't occupy space.
+
+* Use STL map for Lookup::lookup_p_tab_p_
+
+* Abstracted Axis_group_element into Axis_group_interface, and removed
+Axis_group_element. This eliminates some multiple inheritance in the
+backend
+
+1.3.35.jcn1
+===========
+
+* Added minimum-space property to Side_position_interface.  Used in
+  positioning of Volta_spanner: voltaMinimumSpace.
+
+* Fixed and cleaned-up volta-spanner.
+
+* Moved directional-element.cc -> directional-element-interface.cc
+
+* Renamed all `process_requests' to `process_music', which fixes
+  midi performance.
+
+* Fixed dimensions (more x-y interchanges) of brace, bracket and
+  volta-spanner.
+
+* Half-assed fix to get similar vertical placement of orphaned vs.
+  line-spanned dynamic elements.
+
+* Added property bracketCollapseHeight: the minimal size of a staff bracket
+  that will be typeset.  Smaller brackets will not be displayed.  This
+  fixes the (in 1.3.x reintroduced) funny duck-beak-bracket-bug (sorry).
+
+* Removed some dissonant chords from Coriolan
+
+1.3.35
+======
+
+* Removed Documentation/programmer directory 
+
+1.3.34.jcn3
+===========
+
+* Small enhancements to Staff_margin_engraver:
+   - by default, the marginScript left aligns the text
+   - to set the text style, use property marginScriptTextStyle
+   - to change the alignment, use property marginScriptHorizontalAlignment
+     (centred and right alignment require manual padding settings).
+
+* Print a friendly message if the manual pages failed to build.
+
+* Bugfix: dynamicDirection now overrides verticalDirection setting.
+
+* Warning messages and nl.po
+
+* Fixed vertical alignment for all dynamic items and (reluctantly)
+  reinstated old directional behaviour for orphaned dynamics.
+
+* Finished maximumRestCount property.
+
+1.3.34
+======
+1.3.33.hwn2
+===========
+
+* Print key without setting key, syntax "\key ;". General cleanups of
+key-item.
+
+* Add paragraph tags in HTML output of mudela-book.  Music fragment
+don't run into the text anymore.
+
+* Bugfix: don't align the first line of text. (Lookup::text ()).
+
+* Abstract away data members of Axis_group_element, Align_element
+
+
+1.3.33.jcn3
+===========
+
+* Added helpful properties instrumentScriptPadding/instrScriptPadding for
+  Staff_margin_engraver.
+
+* Removed some empty files, substituted (c) 1999 occurrences.
+
+* Added \property maximumRestCount.  It will prevent showing (or actually:
+  moving in case of a collision) more than maximumRestCount similar rests.
+  WIP!
+
+* Rewrote Staff_margin_engraver.  Staff margin texts now hang on a new
+  breakable item: Left_edge_item.
+
+* Fixed vertical alignment for dynamic elements.  Orphaned dynamic items
+  (not supported by a Dynamic_line_spanner) still collide with Staff,
+  although they now have staff support, which was supposed to fix this.
+
+* Fixed Staff_margin_engraver for "instrument", "instr" is still broken.
+
+* Dynamic elements are only put in a Dynamic_line_spanner if there
+  actually is more than one adjacent note-column with a dynamic.
+  This breaks the fine looks of all dynamics, again :-)
+
+
+
+
+1.3.33
+======
+
+1.3.32.hwn3
+===========
+
+* Experiment: use STL map for Scheme_hash_table; Is there a speedup?
+
+* Bugfix: print brace iso. bracket for Piano / GrandStaff
+
+* Change naming: change do_post_processsing into after_line_breaking,
+do_pre_processsing into before_line_breaking and do_process_requests
+into do_process_music.
+
+* Bugfix in hash-table.hh: do quadratic probing, and not cubic probing.
+
+* Display property name for type error.
+
+* Cleanups for Dynamic_engraver and Dynamic_line_spanner.
+
+* Warn if last column in score is musical. Helps catch programming errors.
+
+* Spanner::spanned_drul_ now is private. 
+
+* Rewrote some bar code: moved molecule functions out of Lookup.
+
+1.3.32.jcn3
+===========
+
+* Embedded newlines in text items are now allowed.  This helps avoiding
+  TeX-hacking in some cases.  See input/test/coriolan-margin.ly
+
+* Fixed stupid x-y interchange bug for staff-bracket.  This fixes
+  placement of staff-brackets.
+
+* Fixed bracket/arch-thickness interchange bug, and made bracket a bit
+  thinner.
+
+* Fixed slur/bezier-beautiful name mismatch.  This should fix the steep
+  slurs that were apparently reintroduced in 1.3.29.
+
+* Made some small fixes to Coriolan.
+
+* Removed duplicate lily/output-property-engraver.hh.
+
+* Removed optional use of vanilla spanner in Dynamic_engraver.
+
+* Fixed (measured) tremolo for Stem and Beam. Merged declarations
+  stem-engraver.hh and chord-tremolo-engraver.hh into their .cc
+  implementation file.  Also fixed looks of Chord tremolo, input and
+  implementation is still ugly.
+
+* Added *.yy and *.ll to TAGS, to that tags-find-replace doesn't omit
+  parser and lexer.
+
+1.3.31.mb1
+=========
+
+* Fixed \specialkey and \normalkey. Updated documentation.
+
+1.3.32
+======
+1.3.31.jcn5
+===========
+
+* Fixed and cleaned-up Dynamic_engraver.  Optionionally uses vanilla
+  spanner instead of Dynamic_line_spanner.
+
+* Made gcc-2.95 compile fix in libc-extension.
+
+* Various fixes to Coriolan, score starts to look acceptable.
+
+* Moved optional text of crescendo into Crescendo spanner.  Fixed horizontal
+  and vertical alignment of dynamics.
+
+* Added new text crescendo spanners to Coriolan and made some fixes.
+  If you're using timidity, use the -EO option to prevent notes get
+  stuck.  I'm not sure whose fault this is, Lily's MIDI output may be
+  stretching the standard a bit.
+
+* Adjacent dynamic markings are now grouped on a horizontal line, but it's
+  not perfect yet: they're always below the staff and no horizontal spacing
+  is done.  Also, character metrics of dynamics are still not used.
+  See: input/test/crescendi.ly and input/test/dyn-line.ly
+
+* Cleaned up Span_dynamic_performer.
+
+1.3.31
+======
+1.3.30.mb1
+=========
+
+* Fixed the page layout, reintroducing space for the header and
+  trying to keep piece titles on the same page as the piece.
+  The header and footer can now contain several lines.
+
+1.3.30.jcn3
+===========
+
+* Lily now also performs crescendi and decrescendi in MIDI output:
+  Span_dynamic_performer in a slightly crappy way.
+
+* Added preliminary support for crescendi/decrescendi other than `hairpins',
+  eg: `cresc. poco `a poco -- -- --'
+
+* Made MIDI tie performance fix.
+
+1.3.30.jcn2
+===========
+
+* Lily now performs absolute dynamics in MIDI output.
+
+* Included David's comments on opus47 in TODO.
+
+1.3.30.jcn1
+===========
+
+* More Coriolan: flute-1,2; oboe-1,2; clarinet-1,2; 
+  fixes and remainder french horn-1,2; trombone-1,2;
+  fagotto-1,2; timpani; and several fixes.
+  
+1.3.30.uu1
+==========
+
+* Remove some old doco from programmer/ and put on personal homepage.
+
+* Removed union-find from flower library.
+
+* Only quantise tie horizontal part inside the staff.
+
+1.3.30
+======
+1.3.29.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Report type errors for \property. Helps with converting 1.2 input
+
+* Use Scheme for Align_element; fixed graceAlignPosition 
+and removed \property alignmentReference in the process.
+
+* Use generic properties for lyrics too.  This fixes \property
+Lyrics.textStyle
+
+
+* Add relative distance for constraints between non-column items.
+
+* Automatic \marks: use "\mark ; ". The mark numbers or letters are
+increased automatically.
+
+* Translators now only change properties of their own context. This
+removes the 2nd argument to Translator::get_property()
+
+* Bugfix for Metapost mode
+
+1.3.29.uu1
+==========
+
+* Updates of glossary  (Christian Mondrup)
+
+* Bugfix with bar number placement
+
+* Moved links to bibliography/ and misc/ to main index.
+
+1.3.29
+======
+
+* Moved Slur-specific code from Bezier_bow to Slur and Slur_bezier_bow.
+  Slurs are now calculated just once.
+
+* Bezier_bow gets constants from paper.  Still no sensible solution for
+  magic asymmetry gradient step constants.
+
+* Reinstantiated tangent-controls, more flexible than ever.  You can choose
+  between area asymmetry and tangent-controls.  My guess is, tangent controls
+  will be junked in 1.3.30.
+
+* Slur area: only look at x-gradient.
+
+* Added credits for some symbols of as5/9 fonts.
+
+* Bugfix: don't make almost flat slurs, change in de-uglyfy slur.  
+
+* Bugfix: midi2ly put out recent version (ugh).
+
+1.3.28.hwn2
+===========
+
+* Bugfix: don't forget to process staffSpace and numberOfStaffLines
+properties.
+
+* Removed Gade score. To appear (shortly?) on Mutopia. 
+
+* Make Bar_script_engraver look for typeVisibilityFunction (eg
+property barNumberVisibilityFunction). Changed the names of the Scheme
+functions to be understandable. See input/test/bar-script-visibility.ly
+
+* rewrite of class Molecule. It has now reached the ultimate quality
+plateau. All molecule data is now shared.
+
+1.3.28
+======
+
+* Update of the glossary by Christian Mondrup 
+
+* Moved horn-concerto-3 out of tarball to private website, removed
+W.A.Mozart subdirectory.
+
+1.3.27.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Bugfix: don't make giant ties if the horizontal part of tie is near
+the center.
+
+* Small optimizations to be a little more careful with mem usage. 
+
+* Website change: put all examples in one directory.
+
+* Removed Atom as a separate type.  Now use SCM, and since we use
+function composition, Atoms are immutable, so they don't have to be
+copied. This makes life easier, hopefully this is quicker and uses
+less memory.
+
+1.3.27.jcn1
+===========
+
+* Bezier_bow: minimise_enclosed_area
+
+1.3.27
+======
+
+1.3.26.hwn4
+===========
+
+* Tuplet-spanner slope calculation now looks better on tupletted rests
+(patch courtesy Laurent Martelli)
+
+* Bugfix (Staff_performer::new_instrument_str ()) check type of
+\property "instrument"
+
+* New mechanism for breaking lines: do not copy & prune the element
+property list separately, but combine these steps. Dramatically
+reduces memory usage for large scores.
+
+1.3.27
+======
+1.3.26.jcn2
+===========
+
+* Bugfix: font used in volta-spanner calculation.
+
+* Added simple selection list to webpage, inspired by sawmill.
+ 
+* Devised kludge for ascii 5 character font pitches.
+ 
+* Substitutions: interline, 1997,1998, @stack.nl and small typo fixes.
+
+1.3.26.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Plug memory leaks related to Moment:
+  - Spacing_engraver::do_pre_move_processing ()
+  - make_rational ()/make-rational
+  - Paper_column::Paper_column ()
+
+* Plug memory leak in Paper_outputter::output_{String,Real,int}_def()
+
+* Plug memory leak in Score_engraver::set_columns ()
+
+* Plug memory leak in Scheme_hash_table::set()
+
+* Plug memory leak in Score_element::molecule_extent ()
+
+* Bugfix: don't crash if a slur doesn't span anything.
+
+* Bugfix: don't crash if doing beams without a staff symbol.
+
+* Generic element property setting:
+
+	\outputproperty #predicate #'symbol = #value
+
+Will set the element property symbol to value, for any elements that
+return true for PREDICATE.  This allows you to virtually tweak *ANY*
+property of the output. Example in input/test/generic-output-property.ly
+
+1.3.26
+======
+
+* lilypond as as2ly: --help and --version to stdout.  Regular identify 
+  to stderr.  This fixes help2man's manpage generation.
+
+* configure: substitute full path for perl and guile in scripts.
+
+* Added ascii slur and volta.  There seems to be a Lily bug in volta placement.
+
+* Bugfix: default font now user settable
+
+* as2text: handle plain ascii font, read from stdin, you can now do:
+
+  echo "\time 4/4; g''1 g2 g4. g8" | lilypond -f as -i init-as.fly - | as2text
+
+1.3.25.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Bugfix: second half of broken ties now are displayed again.
+
+* Bugfix: add clef to the support of 8 text in the G_8 clefs. Center
+it horizontally on the clef.
+
+* Added Tie_column spanner. Ties in tied chords now get proper directionsa.
+
+* Bugfix: unbroken repeat barlines now work, eg. |:
+
+* Added Request_iterator to make more flexible constructions possible.
+
+1.3.25
+======
+* as2text: catch missing font/character errors, added default font, set text.
+
+* New ascii fonts and glyphs: as5 as-numeral4 as-braces9
+
+* Ascii output, minimal support:
+  - AsciiScript Fonts: mf/*.af
+  - Init files: ly/*-as.*ly 
+  - AsciiScript translation to text: scripts/as2text.scm
+  - input/test/as.fly input/test/as1.fly
+  - Output support: lily/lily.scm
+  - Try:
+      lilypond -f as -i init-as.fly input/test/as.fly
+      as2text as.as
+
+1.3.24.hwn1
+===========
+
+* The horizontal part of ties will avoid collision with staff lines.
+
+* Plugged memory leak: don't protect Atom function.
+
+* Lookup cleanups. Made lots of functions static. Moved some code out
+of Lookup.
+
+
+
+1.3.24.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Bugfix: ly2dvi.py exits succesfully when encountering --help and
+does not delete any of the file_ly*.tex.
+
+* Added header and footer support in ly2dvi.py
+
+1.3.24
+======
+
+* Added a ROADMAP file explaining the source directory layout.
+
+* Minor tweak in the feta 6 and 9 numeral
+ 
+* Moved files from lib/ to flower/
+
+* Removed Note_head_side class.
+
+* Updated the webpage to be a little more chatty. 
+
+* Small Local_key_engraver optimization: only lookup timing engraver once.
+
+* Fixed dashed slurs
+
+* Rewrite of Slur code.  Be much more picky about slur shapes. We try
+to offset the slur instead of bending it too much
+
+* Look at stem directions for tie direction.
+
+* Compound multimeasure rests. Put measures_i_ variable in an element
+property.  Made the symbol a lot wider.
+
+* Time signature small cleanups.
+
+1.3.22.hwn2
+===========
+
+* Symbols opposite to stem (eg marcato) now get the proper glyph in up
+version.
+
+* Breathing marks now have a direction by default.
+
+* Do set generic script properties.
+
+* Also put tuplet brackets under notes.
+
+* Score_element_info: only store origin of element, but not the path
+to parent translators. Saves a little memory, and removes some complexity.
+
+
+1.3.22.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Autobeaming in time sigs that don't have 1/4 beats fixed.
+
+* (De)crescendi should now work. (Thanks Michael)
+
+* Better error reporting for conflicting time signatures.
+
+* Line_number_engraver: output locations of note head
+definitions. Very handy when entering complicated scores.
+
+* Rewrote multi measure rest support: now they are entered as spanners
+(\commandspanrequest \start "rest"). RXXXX is an abbreviation for
+
+  { \commandspanrequest \start "rest"
+    SXXXX
+    \commandspanrequest \stop "rest"
+  }
+
+* Removed support of percent style repetitions. 
+
+* Put texts outside the staff.
+
+1.3.21.mb1
+==========
+* Getopt bugfix: don't assert on certain errors.
+
+* ly2dvi: Remove unnecessary space for the page headers.
+
+* Bugfix convert-mudela
+
+1.3.21.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Bugfix in lilypond-mode.el: eval-buffering now uses file name and
+not buffer name.
+
+* Scrapped tupletVisibility property. Now use tupletNumberVisibility,
+tupletBracketVisibility, with Scheme value #t, #f or 'if-no-beam.
+\property tupletInvisible will stop all tuplet spanner creation.
+
+* Don't go berserk if tuplet spanner is on only one column.
+
+* Use SCMs & Smobs for Molecules & atoms.  This uses less
+scm_(un)protect_object () calls, so the output stage should be faster.
+
+* Added \property tupletSpannerDuration, to make multiple tuplet signs
+with one \times.
+
+* Some programming Errors in spacing are now caught. Lily does not
+hang when encountering degenerate springs.
+
+* Allow beams to start and end over rests
+
+1.3.19.hwn2
+===========
+* Fix disappearing clefs when clefs are not printed with a barline.
+
+1.3.20.jcn2
+==========
+
+* SCM properties beamHeight and beamVerticalposition now use half-spaces:
+  input/test/beam-control.fly
+* Added \context Voice to .fly and .sly; the default \context Staff is almost
+  never what you expect
+* Fixed decision for .sly/.fly in lilypond-mode.
+
+1.3.19.hwn1
+==========
+
+* Clean up font-metric hierarchy, use Adobe AFM code to parse AFM files.
+Cleanup mf-to-table.py
+
+* Fixed embarassing slur bug.
+
+1.3.19.jcn1
+==========
+
+* lilypond-mode.el: guess init file for lily-*-region, lily-mode-map bindings
+
+1.3.18.uu2
+==========
+
+* lilypond-mode.el for emacs supersedes mudela-mode.el 
+
+* Tuplet spanners don't collide with encompassing notes. 
+
+* Gobbled Adobe parseAFM* code, for future use.
+
+* Big 1999 to 2000 search/replace.
+
+* Big interline to staff_space search/replace for mf files.
+
+* Removed Bow class, and split code into Tie and Slur
+
+* Don't put scripts on grace notes.
+
+* Font_metric uses SCM for name field.
+
+* Various compilation fixes.
+
+1.3.17.jcn2
+===========

+
+* small fix to mutopia/J.S.Bach/Duette/violino-ii.ly
+
+1.3.17.hwn2
+===========
+
+* Remove Paper_def calls in bezier-bow.cc
+
+* Remove data members of Tuplet_spanner,  Volta_spanner
+
+* hang_on_clef, property hangOnClef removed
+
+* Bar::type_str_ mode into element property `glyph'. Use a Scheme
+function to determine breaking behavior.
+
+* More Scheme typechecking.
+
+* Be strict about the difference between strings and symbols for conversion.
+
+* Fixed bug that made 1st line offset to right fixed. Bugfix courtesy
+Laurent Martelli.
+
+* Partial French translation, courtesy Laurent Martelli.
+
+* Small corrections in NL translation. 
+
+1.3.17.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Added mensural note heads (noteHeadStyle = "mensural") Additionally,
+we have a longa note head.  noteHeadStyle = "harmonic" is not
+supported anymore. (for now, that is)  
+
+* Reference manual update. Document \properties with examples
+
+* fix mudela-book --help
+
+* Use element properties for Text_item::text_str_, Clef_item::symbol_,
+Key_item::c0_position_
+
+* Clef_engraver general cleanup. Use alists (\property
+supportedClefTypes, clefPitches) for clef types.

+===========
+* Fixed cross staff slurs.  It seems that cross-staff sign
+  was swapped.
+
+1.3.15.hwn1
+===========
+
+* Fixed bug in stem code.  Stem in chords works again.  Small
+stem cleanups.
+
+* Use element properties for Staff_symbol.
+

+middle for tied chords.
+
+* Junked Directional_spanner, Column_info.
+Directional_element now is element interface `Directional_element_interface'

+1.4.2.jcn4
+==========
+
+* Windows: bugfix for tex-wrappers, added tex wrapper for dvips.
+LilyPond (read: ly2dvi) should now work right out of the box.
+
+Amazing; it seems that ly2dvi won't generate PK files without this
+dvips wrapper.  We had over 200 downloads of setup.exe, yet only one
+`call for help'.  Did all the others give up, or did none of them
+bother to share their fix/file a bug report?  Urg.
+
+* Included mktexnam.patch (again?).
+
+* Documentation fix (Mark Hindley).
+
+* Debian patch and bashism fix (Anthony).
+
+* Bugfix: local-install should depend on $(INSTALLATION_FILES).  This fixes
+./configure; make install in buildscripts/ (Michael Vanier).
+
+* Removed les-nereides from short-examples, as it is tweaked a lot,
+contrary to what the webpage claims (didn't know that).
+
+1.4.2.mb1
+==========
+
+* ly2dvi, titledefs.tex: Typeset copyright notice at the bottom of the
+first page. Make separate page styles for first and last page.
+
+* Bugfix: Default RehearsalMark font-family changed to roman (only
+affects Scheme text markups).
+
+1.4.2.hwn1
+==========
+
+* Added support for Q: statement to abc2ly. (Laura Conrad)
+
+* Tie shape bugfix (Mark Hindley).
+
+* Bugfix: lilypond-book LatexPaper.__setattr__()
+
+* Bugfix: make Hyphen_spanner::brew_molecule() more robust.
+
+* Don't use stdin when no argument specified.
+
+* Naming smobs -> grobs 
+
+* Bugfix: ledger lines on easy-notation note heads.
+
+1.4.2
+=====
+
+* Glossary fixes (Thanks Jean-Pierre Coulon).
+
+1.4.1.jcn3
+==========
+
+* Updated les-nereides.
+
+* Added \newpage command.
+
+* Doco fixes.
+
+* Debian make fix.
+
+* Fix for index, small doco fixes.
+
+* Bugfix: use roman font (instead of feta) for unacorda pedal.
+
+* Don't use cyclic symlinks for web doc.
+
+* Don't create `empty pngs' with touch, make symlinks instead.
+
+* Added extra header titling fields to ly2dvi too.
+
+1.4.1.mb2
+=========
+
+* documentation fixes
+
+* Add make rule to avoid problems building dvi documentation
+
+* Documentation fixes
+

+
+1.4.1.hwn1
+==========
+
+* Do not lengthen the stem in case of a collision with the flag, but
+move dots to the right.
+
+* Debian patches (Thanks, Anthony!)
+
+1.4.1
+=====
+
+1.4.0.jcn7
+==========
+
+* Added \tupletUp, \tupletDown, \tupletBoth.
+
+* Bugfix convert-ly: treCorde.
+
+* Slur attachment and extremity offsets taken relative to slur
+direction; so that
+
+   Slur \override #'attachment-offset = #'((0 . 1) . (0 . 1))
+
+will always make the slur move away from the note head.
+
+* Bugfix: slurs on dotted or flagged notes.
+
+* Added @reng, @rgrob, and @rint macros for referencing engravers,
+grobs and interfaces in documentation.
+
+* Bugfix for configure.
+
+* text2html: use python script, use <pre> instead of <xmp>.
+
+* Fixed pa.ly.
+
+* Bugfix: lilypond mode: make view messages scroll by.
+
+* configure: check for splitting makeinfo; small fixes for
+non-splitting makeinfo doc.

+(Thanks David Arnold).

+
+* Bugfix: trend of broken slurs with user-overridden stem attachments.
+
+* Bugfix redhat.spec: use root attributes on files.
+
+* Bugfix: typo in update-lily, re-set download url to /development.
+
+* Removed some empty files.

+crash.
+
+* Bugfix: fixed the problem where dots clash with other notes (Timothy S.
+Nelson)

+a lot faster.
+
+* Added links to internals documentation
+
+* Small dimcache (darn gcc-2.95) bugfixes.
+

+automatically. Related changes:
+
+  - duration-log of Note head can be larger than 2
+
+  - make public class Grob_pitch_tuple
+
+* Make old spacing engine default again. The new one is still rather
+sucky.
+
+1.5.21
+======
+1.5.20.jcn1
+===========
+
+* Fixed direct PostScript output, and changed default fonts.
+
+* Bugfix: automaticMelismata in refman (huh, or should lily be changed?)
+
+* pktrace:
+
+      cp mf/out/feta20.* $HOME/usr/src/sketch-0.7.8/Resources/Fontmetrics
+      echo 'TeX-feta20,feta20,Roman,-gnu-feta20-medium-r-normal,adobe-fontspec\ific,feta20' >> $HOME/usr/src/sketch-0.7.8/Resources/Fontmetrics/std.sfd
+
+
+1.5.3.lec1
+==========
+abc2ly fixes:

+      partial fix for tuplet parsing
+      fix for blank first T: line
+      escape "'s in header lines
+      fix for dotted breve in whole note duration

+
+
+1.5.20.uu1
+==========
+
+* etf2ly robustness fixes
+ 
+* Rewrote outputting backend. Now uses GUILE modules.
+
+* Line breaking bugfix.
+
+* Bugfix: Unfolded_repeat_iterator::add_repeat_command().
+
+1.5.20
+======
+
+1.5.19.jcn3
+===========
+
+* Sketch output:
+
+  - Sketch uses feta font.
+  - Fix to linewidth and feta fontsize.
+   - mf-to-table: write dummy values in afm to make sketch happy.
+  - Fixes to glyphs: rectangles beziers work now.
+   - Bugfix: sketch.scm: use primitive-eval.
+
+* Sketch and feta Type1 fonts:
+   - textrace:
+      wget http://www.inf.bme.hu/~pts/textrace-latest.tar.gz
+      tar xzf textrace-latest.tar.gz
+      (cd autotrace-0.27ap; ./configure; make)
+      ./traceall.sh feta20 feta20.pfb $HOME/usr/src/lilypond/mf/out
+
+  - copy mf/out/feta20.* to sketch/Resources/Fontmetrics:
+
+   - append to sketch/Resources/Fontmetrics/std.sfd:
+      echo 'TeX-feta20,feta20,Roman,-gnu-feta20-medium-r-normal,adobe-fontspecific,feta20' >> $HOME/usr/src/sketch/sketch/Resources/Fontmetrics/std.sfd
+
+   - Hmm, then find that
+
+     + Sketch accesses characters by name, ie, the
+clefs      name characters have in default text fonts.  Luckily, textrace
+      mangles the feta names too.  Sadly, textrace chooses different names
+      for characters > 128.
+
+    + Textrace mangles font name by prepending `TeX-'.  Doesn't seem to
+      pose a big problem; we'll have to pefix `TeX-' to feta fonts.
+
+    + Sadly, only the sketch-0.7.x is happy with the feta type1 font, but
+      printing is not yet implemented?
+
+ * Remove modules directory (again?).
+
+
+1.5.18.moh1
+===========
+
+* Further work on more flexible control of lyric alignment.

+
+* First try at Sketch (sketch.sourceforge.net) output.

+ - Stems reach to top (or bottom) of beam.
+ - Beam uses correct stem thickness (only right beams, left TODO).
+ - testing code in effect: only outlines are drawn.
