Hello: I just wanted to thank you for this fine piece of work. I've just started exploring what lilypond can do, and I have to say I am deeply impressed. It is apparent that you not only are fine programmers, but also that you have a wonderful sense of the beauty of engraved music. That is some

Bertalan Fodor schrieb: I think in this way this is a bad practice Well, it is also not really logical/good practice to have the major be the main function (with no modifier) and the minor then with a modifier. It is always a bit difficult to explain people that their habits are bad and the

Feature request: different shaped stems for half notes in tabulature

Hi, there has been complaints on the German lilypond forum about the stems of half notes in tabulatures: half notes and quarter notes look the same in pure tabulatur notation, if there is no traditional note line above specifying the rythms. A user posted a picture of a tabulatur featuring a

Hi, there has been every once and a while questions about German chord names on the German lilypond forum. The users would like to be able to make a minor chord print the chord name as a small letter, and a big letter for the major chord, e.g. C maj would be C and C min would be c. This has so
