3 Translation of GIT committish: e18567dccce0f16b680e6b7e562329e5f8bcae59
5 When revising a translation, copy the HEAD committish of the
6 version that you are working on. For details, see the Contributors'
7 Guide, node Updating translation committishes..
12 (I'd rather have the below in the CG. -gp)
15 * avoid "HERE" as name for links, use descriptive link names like
16 @uref{,Download LilyPond 2.5.16}
18 * avoid putting links in running text. They make text harder to read.
19 Preferably: (@uref{,...}, etc. )
21 * use a descriptive title in @subsubheading
23 * writing date in "Month DD, YYYY" format is required for
24 generating the RSS feed; in case the message (and thus the date)
25 is not in English, you must write a well-formed date in English
26 like above in a comment between the closing brace of @emph and the
28 (see "Japanese translation" below for an example).
30 * Split news items in small chunks. It's OK to have more than 1 item
33 * don't duplicate entries from news-front.itexi

2021 LilyPond 2.5.20 has lots of bugfixes, in particular, MIDI files of
2022 multi-movement pieces don't overwrite each other. Version 2.5.20 also
2023 supports putting arrows on lines, such as glissandi.
2024 More details are in the
2026 file, or go straight to @ref{Descargas antiguas}.
2031 @subsubheading April 15, 2005
2032 LilyPond 2.5.19 was released. The command `\epsfile' allows inclusion
2033 of EPS graphics into markup texts and the music function
2034 `\musicDisplay' will display a music expression as indented
2035 Scheme code. Take a look at
2037 file and @ref{Descargas antiguas}.
2042 @subsubheading April 6, 2005
2043 2.5.18 is a bugfix release. It has many small cleanups in the
2044 web-based documentation, and many small cleanups all over the
2045 place. @ref{Descargas antiguas}
2050 @subsubheading March 31, 2005
2051 2.5.17 is out. This release features many small bugfixes. In addition,
2052 it has support for string number notation for guitar. This feature was
2053 sponsored by Gunther Strube. @ref{Descargas antiguas}

2059 LilyPond 2.5.16 is out. This release fixes a few minor but irritating
2060 errors. A Fedora Core 3 binary is also available.

2066 @subsubheading March 14, 2005
2067 LilyPond 2.5.15 is out. This release has clean ups in the SVG output,
2068 and now uses the LilyPond number font for time signatures. It is
2069 now possible to add text before and after music. This can be used to
2070 add verses after a music. Take a look at the @ref{Cambios}
2071 file and @ref{Descargas antiguas}!
2076 @subsubheading March 7, 2005
2077 LilyPond 2.5.14 is out. It is now possible (and in fact, encouraged),
2078 to build LilyPond either without the Kpathsea TeX library or with the
2079 Kpathsea dynamically loaded, but only for the -btex backend. This
2080 means that packages do not have to depend on TeX anymore. With this,
2081 the Windows download size will go down significantly. Take a look at

2125 LilyPond 2.5.12 is out. The big news is that this release supports
2126 TrueType fonts. This means that it is now possible to use @strong{all}
2127 fonts available via FontConfig. Also, arpeggios may be written out
2128 using ties and individual objects may have colors! Take a look at

2176 Century Schoolbook from the PS font suite. It also has
2177 small updates to the tablature settings by Erlend Aasland,
2178 assorted manual updates by Graham, and an overhaul of the

2188 LilyPond 2.5.6 was released. This is a "technology preview"
2189 release, which means that it has all kinds of nifty
2190 features, but is not actually usable for producing nicely
2191 printed scores. For this reason, an RPM of this release was
2192 not produced. The PS backend is now completely switched over
2193 to Pango/FontConfig: for -f ps, LilyPond only accepts UTF8
2194 input, all text fonts are loaded through Pango, the TeX
2195 backend now offloads all metric computations to LaTeX, the
2196 SVG and GNOME backends are broken, most probably.

2217 LilyPond 2.5.4 is out. This release has some major
2218 brainsurgery in the font handling. As of now, LilyPond loads
2219 the music fonts in OpenType font format using FreeType.

2230 LilyPond 2.5.3 was released. A new script, `\espressivo' has
2231 been added, for a combination of crescendo and decrescendo
2232 on a single note. In markups, expressions stacked with
2233 `\column', `\center-align', etc, are not grouped with `< ...
2234 >' anymore, but with `@{ ... @}'. LilyPond will now avoid line
2235 breaks that cause long texts to stick outside of the page

2260 LilyPond 2.5.1 is out. This is an experimental release,
2261 containing some proof-of-concept code for our graphical
2262 layout editor. You can add and remove things from the file,
2263 and the tweaks will still work, as long as the tweaked notes
2264 remain in the place (ie. start at the same time-wise and be
2265 part of the same context). Further attractions are: the

2281 notes, Cue notes can now be created with
2284 \cueDuring #VOICE-NAME #DIRECTION { MUSIC }
2287 Stemlets (short stems over beamed rests) have been added.
2288 In addition, Jan hacked together some highly experimental
2289 code where you can use the mouse to drag and drop objects in
2290 the -f gnome backend. These tweaks can be saved and are
2291 applied to the PS and TeX output as well.

2444 LilyPond 2.3.16 was released. It fixes a couple of annoying
2445 bugs, and has an important addition in the slur-formatter. Slurs that
2446 pass note heads much closer than the average distance get an extra
2447 penalty. This fixes a lot of difficult slurring cases. See
2448 input/regression/new-slur for some examples.
2449 Please consider this release as a 3.0 pre-release so try to find as
2450 many bugs as possible. A report including a small .ly example
2451 can be filed at bug-lilypond@@gnu.org
2452 In this case, a bug is defined as something that the current 2.3 does
2453 worse than the latest 2.2 release. We want to be sure that no output
2454 will get uglier by upgrading to 3.0, so that once 3.0 is out, nothing
2455 will hold users back in switching.

2467 postscript output. Also, the types of events quoted with

2496 let him know via one of the mailing lists.

2509 "up" and "down" staves separately when using

2553 LilyPond 2.3.10 is out. This release has a major clean-up of the

2556 removed. The directory has gone from 146 examples to 72 examples. That
2557 means that we're halfway cleaning it out. Incidentally, the manual
2558 has gone from 200 to 220 pages. New features:
2561 Running trills now have their own spanner and event. They are

2576 LilyPond 2.3.9 is out. The important change is that lilypond
2577 now once-again directly runs the binary. The old wrapper script has
2578 been renamed to lilypond-latex.py, and should only be used for legacy
2579 projects. The recommended route is either using lilypond directly
2580 (with \book, you can have multiple movements within one document), or
2581 to run lilypond-book with a LaTeX wrapper file.
2582 This release also fixes a bunch of small errors. I now consider
2583 LilyPond feature complete for a 3.0 release. Next on the TODO list is

2607 The slur formatting has been rewritten. The new slur code

2612 lines, scripts (like staccato and accent) and accidentals. In
