postion of accidentals in Chords (cluster-like)

2004-01-10 Thread Nikolai Zinke
Hello, I've been using your wonderful lilypond (2.1.6) on my OS X 10.2.8 for a few weeks... Due to my interests in writing modern, atonal music with something special harmonic situations I recognized , that the positioning of accidentals in a chord is a little incorrect: I type the chord: (The

more lyrics notation wishes

2004-01-10 Thread Erik Sandberg
