Post #2938273

@RosaCtrl@social.vivaldi.net I believe this is what Fred Brooks (The mythical man month, 1975) called: Plan to throw one away. I wrote three implementations of a declarative music typesetter: MPP (MuTeX Pre Processor in Pascal, on DOS), MPP (same in C, on Unix), MPP (MusiXTeX Pre Processor in C++) before Han-Wen, who joined me working on the final MPP, wrote his first: MPP95 (a failure, of course;) before h/we started #GNU #LilyPond in 1997. LilyPond got a major rewrite, overhaul in the v1.3 series where we integrated #Guile and exposed all functionality to the user, giving them full freedom and control. Like every program should, IMHO.
