Subject: 17th century English kbd ornaments
I've looked in the lilypond documentation for ornaments like these

The images are from the explanations of ornaments in Purcell's "A Choice
Collection of Lessons", 1696 (on imslp.org). There are a few others that
are common in Purcell et al, and the shake // (and a similar ornament with
only one line) is very common in Byrd and the other virginalist composers.
If they're not in lilypond, would be good to have them. I can't offer any
lilypond expertise, but could sponsor them if the sponsorship system is
still in place.

It would certainly be possible and fairly simple to create glyphs like this.
We would need to be careful about naming, since a shake is generally
something else. However, you may be able to create what you want yourself.
Have you looked at
