as you want to add something to LilyPond herself, i think this message will fit better on the developer list (lilypond-de...@gnu.org), so i'm forwarding it. Have you tried modifying LilyPond source code before, do you know how to access it? If not, take a look at http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/contributor/overview-of-work-flow and then http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/contributor/quick-start As for modifying Feta font, there is some introduction here: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/contributor/modifying-the-feta-font Let us know when you encounter any problems (as a rule of thumb, if you haven't found a solution after 20 minutes of searching, it's fine to ask. Developers may occasionally overlook some emails, but they are generally helpful when you ask specific questions). cheers :) Janek _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
