Hi Federico,
yes, I’m reading the docs, the CG is indeed not that easy to read, but I’m used to worse.
The LilyDev install docs are missing the „upgrading Linux“ part, e.g. the request to install cyrillic fonts for TeX might ask too much from a usual Windows or Mac user. And I’d appreciate a hint about which IDE to use (I don’t believe in the church of Emacs), in my case: which editor supports translations in any way, and can help with texinfo?
Since the doc diff is rather big, I’d appreciate a hint where to start - just go after the priority list?
Perhaps just send me your unfinished guide ;-)
Greetlings, Hraban
