I don't agree about it being intractable. The main point is that Context Specced music needs to be iterated _before_ anything else at a given _main_ point of time (i.e., disregarding the grace timing) since it might produce material going backwards in grace time in a different context. That's basically all there is to it as far as I understand. Now this might be a naive misunderstanding about the problem's scope, but if it is, it might make more sense to change the code to match the naive understanding than the other way round. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
