What are editorial accidentals actually, and is there a way to produce them
with Lily?
I don’t know what musicxml means by an editorial accidental, but
generally an editorial accidental may take lots of forms depending on
style/policy: in round parens, in angled brackets, in smaller font size,
in grey colour (which I personally like a lot, though it’s difficult to
get printed well), or above the staff as Phil already mentioned.
The great thing is that with LilyPond you can use a music function and
adapt this function in a style sheet. Mine is called \ed for typing
economy and offers some abbreviations, like
{ \ed Acc cis }
covering all of Accidental, AccidentalSuggestion, AccidentalCautionary.
Best, Simon
