It¹s attached so that anyone can make use of it. Paul, This is a nice implementation -- I didn't think it could be done! I think it should be made part of LilyPond, if the performance hit is not too big. It seems to create a lot of stencils, but maybe that is no problem. I'd like to see a couple of changes. 2pi-over-density should be changed to something like angle-increment. 2pi-over-density is the function used to calculate it; the meaning is really angle-increment. And I think that in-fill-density should be changed radius-increment. Then you could say that the function works by creating series of white stencils radially offset from the black stencil with angles from 0 to 2 pi, at an increment of angle-increment, and with radii from radius-increment to offset. At that point, we can understand how the function creates an outline. Oh, and there should be some documentation that indicates that offset is in staff-spaces. Thanks again for creating this!
