Martin, you're absolutely right, I should have included an attachment. Sorry
for the time wastage.
Ming, try this version. It's just an idea. You might need to tweak relative
positions and/or make the PostScript more elaborate to draw what you want.
Cheers,
Curt

Hi,
Thank your for posting your \postscript example.
But before I was able to view the result I had some trouble copying the
lilypond code to a .ly file from my e-mail client (alpine). In the end I
succeeded and was able to compile the example. But it would have saved me
some trouble if the example was given as an attachment to the original
message.
What is the recommended way to share LilyPond example code here in this
mailinglist?
