On first glance. This looks ideal. THANK YOU
I am a bit brain dead at the moment, so will dig in tomorrow and let you
know if I have any further questions / thoughts / ideas.
Very kind indeed.
Best,
Michael

That is really beautiful. Thank you. I have been giving myself a crash
course in scheme and was also getting somewhat closer to a solution using a
glissando event. Then the internet went down. And low and behold it woke up
to your response.
So this is almost what I want. And I need to dissect your code a bit more
(again, still wrapping my head around scheme). Maybe I can adapt it. My
ultimate goal is to specify the gradient within the given note length (as
opposed to giving a new color directive for every note. This is where it
gets tricky. In my current attempt (drowning in the deep end), it is a bit
tricky because you cannot change colors in the middle of a path directive.
So you need to combine several markups (as in my original example). I was
piecing together stuff I found on LSR and in the user archive and was also
having a huge problem with alignment. My current code is pasted below. It is
a mess, but getting there. I just was reading about returning markup
definitions in hopes that I could iterate through the gradient and build the
markup that way.
En fin, I will study your code. Like I said, it is almost exactly what I
want except I want the gradient within the note length. Of course, any help
in that direction will be much appreciated.
Best,
Michael
