I hope this gets resolved, because IMO there should be a way of using one of the many solfa schemes to restrict note names to two letters. For example, one might use do re mi fa so la ni or d r m f s l n for the natural notes (ni, Sanskrit, is the oldest known syllable for the 7th degree of the major scale.) and substituting vowels in the order iaoueiaoue (iaoue is easy to remember as a JudeoChristian name of God) to get bb's b's #'s and x's. Because of the *very* large number of such schemes, a personal language file is IMO a good way to go. I still have a "myenglish.ly" someplace that I haven't used in years, but not because it didn't work. I think that do re mi users would be more interested in a solfa language or two or twenty than C D E users, but who knows? I use a sed script to edit the notes before lilypond compilation instead. It makes it easier to adjust to changes in lilypond, and permits an implementation of \followKeySignature that users are denied because, no matter how much musical education and experience they may have, they are presumed not to be able to remember what key they are writing in.
