Description:
 [b]LilyKDE[/b] is a set of tools to integrate the
LilyPond music typesetter into KDE. If you are a
LilyPond user and you have KDE, then LilyKDE is
for you.

With LilyKDE, you can:
* Write LilyPond files using Kate, with a PDF
preview embedded in Kate. When you click on a
note, the editor jumps to the correct position.
* Run LilyPond with a keystroke from Kate, or from
Konqueror using a menu action, and the error
messages in the log are also clickable and bring
you right to the place of the error.
* Play on your MIDI keyboard or even on your
computer keyboard, to write your music very
quickly. LilyKDE uses Rumor for this (you need to
install it, of course) 

Other nice features:
* Quickly hyphenate lyrics text using dictionaries
from e.g. OpenOffice.org or Scribus
* Powerful LilyPond syntax highlighting (already
part of KDE)
* Nice icon for LilyPond files (taken from
LilyPond) 

Changelog:
 0.5.0:
* Support for entering music very quickly by
playing on a MIDI keyboard or even your computer
keyboard, using Rumor.
* Turkish translation courtesy of Server Acim.
0.5.1:
* New French translation by Valentin Villenave
(thanks!)
* Updated Turkish translation by Server Acim
(thanks as well!)
* Fix for not working menu actions on some
systems.

I do not have a MIDI keyboard myself, so please
test the new Rumor module and report bugs if you
find them :-)
