I made these changes, and then didn't apply them, because I think the

the accordion expert, so if you like it, go for it.
For one thing, this jars me when reading it. For another, if the original author intended to use "base" in the meaning you suggest, he would have made a symbol "accDiscantbase" rather than "accDiscant". "Discantbase", again, would read jarringly since the principal sides of the accordion are discant and bass. So I am reasonably sure to catch the original intent with this change unless it was supposed to be some kind of pun. But then the pun should have been on the discant as well. Note than "stdbass" is actually kind of ambiguous: it can be read both as "standard bass" and "Stradella bass" (both of which would be accurate). http://codereview.appspot.com/1908041/show _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
