'is' as a sharp is not intuitive (unless you speak Dutch), but now that I’ve told you perhaps you can see the 4, 8 and 16 that sets note values, ‘r’ for rest, and the lower case note names, key of B Major. The notes you see on the right are formed entirely by this part of the script on the left. What will be much easier to demonstrate in a video tutorial is how I copy/pasted a snippet of code from the documentation into the editor and then tweaked it until I got what I wanted. The script on the left side, which you’d have to write from scratch without an editor, demonstrates rather aptly I think, why a tool like Frescobaldi can likely make LilyPond more useful to a much larger community. You can see the first 2 bars of the lick on the right of the screen shot below. To get started I just picked 8 bars of a Stevie Wonder tune I happened to have loaded in iTunes. Frescobaldi also has its own built-in Snippets manager. You might even want to fill in all the fields and save a MasterSnippet.ly file for later reference. The Score Setup Wizard lets you set the following up front-especially recommended your first time, as once you create the file you’ll need to get code snippets from the documentation, the other tools in the Tools menu, another file, or know what to type. Other items on this list will be of great interest soon… I used the Quick Insert tool and the MIDI Player early in my very first score.
