I'm currently investigating how to implement measure counters (Bug 146): http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=146
Compared to multi-measure rest numbers and to percent repeat numbers, there is a little complication: There is no grob to attach the numbers to (the percent repeat iterator creates one music object with the correct length for each percent/number, and the multi-measure rest also has the rest as the proper grob to attach to), and it is not straightforward to find the correct bounds for creating a spanner for each measure. My current idea is to 1) start counting with an \startMeasureCounter event or context property 2) add a Measure_counter_engraver, which will create those counters 3) in each measure, create a spanner spanning the whole measure 4) create a MeasureCounter as a child of that spanner (centered). Now, I don't know how to create a spanner that spans exactly one measure in an engraver... There might note be a barline (and there might be mid-measure barlines), so acknowledging bar lines is not possible. There might also be no notes at all at the beginning of a measure (e.g. with longas there are three measures without a note). Any idea how to implement this?
