> lilypond-user@ > https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user Thank you for this little function Lukas! It is very good and useful. Would it be possible to add to the list the choice for "square" or "bracket"? Some editions are using squares for grouping Violins 1-2. As suggested by David, it would be then enough "user-level" and complete to be documented, don't you think? -- Sent from: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/User-f3.html _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
