Hi all,
below is a working example for the record. You can tweak the
linewidth changing "setlinewidth 1" in flpizzleft and flpizzright or
the angles/proportions of the lines in the line containing the moveto,
lineto and stroke. Even if you don't know Postscript it should be
fairly obvious. When changing the linewidth you might have to adjust
the connection points for the stems accordingly.
Thanks again, Lukas!
