Neil, great work on Sacred Harp stuff.
Thank you. :)
I think this was one of my first attempts at LilyPond hacking.
In minor keys, the sixth degree is played half a step higher than is
written. Can you alter the minor mode so that when I correctly write
the sixth degree half a step higher, it doesn't show the sharp sign?
Sounds like you'd find a suppress-accidental feature useful too
(http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2009-06/msg00346.html).
Alternatively, I think it would be possible to create a new accidental
style which combines the basic features of one of the standard styles
(would you be using 'default?) with a check for the sixth degree.
Can't you just a modal key signature instead of a tonal one?
You're describing the Dorian mode, after all. If the tonic is G,
then tell Lilypond the key is D minor and you should be all set.
