Hello folks, As someone mentioned on this list some time ago, Silas S. Brown has written jianpu-ly, described at http://people.ds.cam.ac.uk/ssb22/mwrhome/jianpu-ly.html, that produces LilyPond code from a custom text description of the score.
This leads to code such as: #(define (note-one grob grob-origin context) (if (grob::has-interface grob 'note-head-interface) (begin (ly:grob-set-property! grob 'stencil (grob-interpret-markup grob (make-lower-markup 0.5 (make-bold-markup "1"))))))) \applyOutput #'Voice #note-one c''4[^. ~ with one specific function (note-one here) per note in the scale. The PDF output produced by LilyPond then looks like: Would a note engraver producing numbers instead of glyphs be a way worth going for obtaining the same while keeping the regular syntax, i.e. without any function such as 'note-one’ above being needed? A by-product of this approach might be the generation of ABC music notation, see http://abcnotation.com, with LilyPond btw. Thanks if you can help! JM
