That is not a good idea IMHO. Single quotes beyond the standard ' are not widespread common heritage. 0x92 did not show up as a single quote in my software and besides the problem could extend to all other kinds of bad glyphs which are difficult for the beginner to distinguish from each other (example given: l,1,|,I, or the other often difficult-to-read series: Ø,Ö,Ô,0,O,Q,o,ò,ó,ö,õ,ô...) Maybe most people will have difficulties reading the above string because we use lousy fonts? It is necessary to tell people to use readable fonts. You may laugh, I use Linux 12x24 (Fixed/Sony) in order to get past such mistakes. The smaller 8x16 version of Fixed/Sony is excellent, too. -- dax2-tele2adsl:dk -- http://d-axel.dk/ Donald Axel _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
