Surprisingly awful. > 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? Sounds like the way to go. Basically to be used as a part of a Jianpu context akin to the NoteNames context. > A by-product of this approach might be the generation of ABC music > notation, see http://abcnotation.com, with LilyPond btw. I don't think this would make a lot of sense since there is no point in getting a printed ABC score rather than a file of ABC input. So you would want a completely different output definition from \layout. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
