If you want to extend the package with your own +commands based on images you have to use LilyPond, i.e. you need a +working installation. This isn't necessary to _use_ 'lilyglyphs', however. +The package contains helper scripts that streamline the creation +of new commands. If you want to make use of them you will also +need a working installation of Python 2. Of course this too isn't +a requirement for using the package. + +'lilyglyphs' is distributed under the LaTeX Project Public License +Version 1.3c (license/COPYING.LPPL), +the included Emmentaler OpenType fonts are distributed under the +SIL Open Font License, Version 1.1 (otf/LICENSE.OFL) + +The project is hosted at https://github.com/uliska/lilyglyphs +There you can report and discuss bugs, problems, suggestions etc. |
