Uh, that's the _glossary_. Its contents are not related to LilyPond's input language, and indeed, you would not be able to enter most of the given notenames into LilyPond unchanged (assuming proper language setting). Including the English notenames, by the way. We actually could allow note names like c-sharp with the current definition of word syntax, but I doubt we'd be doing anybody a favor with that. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
