>From MR 1783:
The file @file{arabic.ly} sets the note language to Italian (or
Solfege), since that is the modern standard in Arabic music and is
widely adopted among Arabic musicians. [...]
The @file{hel-arabic.ly} file allows English note names to be used,
but with customized Italian-like suffixes for alterations. [...]
> Should all key signatures for the various maqams simply go only into

Not sure about that.
