Depends on what one wants to call "better". The code may be marginally nicer. I think that my commit regarding "sus" is pretty uncontentious. I'm not terribly convinced about the "5" part of my patch though. The main difference to your approach seems to be that you only change "c:5" whereas I change "c:5*", so to say, with * being anything. That's more consistent with the general idea that the first digit sets up the basic chord configuration and everything after it is a modification. But it also affects actually existing chords in the docs. So I have to throw a convert-ly rule into the mix. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
