Hi all, (Sorry for the duplicate, I didn't know how I replied created issues for others.)
What's the state of Lilypond's support for notating bends in guitar music? I've read ["The Story of 'String Bending' in Lilypond"][1] on the Lilypond blog, and that seemed promising, but it seems work on the new bend engraver has stopped. I'm interested specifically in the angled lines that indicate bends in the regular staff, more or less like what is shown in the attached PDF (from [issue 1196][2] mentioned in the blog post). If it's not there yet, I can always use some other notation to indicate bending---after all, I'm only using Lilypond to do some transcriptions and lead sheets for myself---but it would be a good feature. To me, it's also probably the only significant shortcoming of Lilypond. Hoping for good news! If there's anything I can do to help, I'll do what I can, although my coding skills are kinda basic.
