Hi, I'm rather new to LilyPond and music typesetting and currently doing my first larger work. While porting my files to version 2.0.0 I noticed that LilyPond now has \appoggiatura and \acciaccatura keywords, which makes things much easier (not having to set stroke-style every time etc.). These keywords always add a slur.
Now, in a rather old music edition I am currently transcribing, both appoggiaturas and acciaccaturas are sometimes slurred sometimes not. I know that I can still create an unslurred grace with the \grace keynote -- but I wonder where is the difference and if maybe the editor of my edition just didn't really care. As to me it seems hard to distinguish slurred and unslurred graces (well, harder than slurred normal notes) and as slurred appoggiaturas/acciaccaturas are default now in LilyPond I wonder whether this is rather a change in notation style over the centuries than a real musical difference. Can somebody enlighten me on this? Can I just use slurred graces or should I stick to the difference my edition makes? Thanks a lot, -Jost. _______________________________________________ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
