Exporting a limited/ pared down version (say just the "content" minus formatting) to a tidy and comprehensible (human readable/ editable) .ly file would be a great feature. Probably even feasible for a casual dev to writ

His opinions and tastes are somewhat odd imho, so despite some good observations, his opinions ought to be taken with a grain of salt. For instance, in his Dorico video, he doesn't seem to appreciate that some of the software's de

I believe similarly strict rules were observed for cursive writing when it was still being taught. I wonder whether such interminable busy-work is an emergent feature of educational institutions arising naturally as a result of how they are
