Yes that could really be nice. Just fyi, MUP (which I used for years) uses ; to separate chord or notes. Repeating the ; without anything simply repeats the previous note or chord. (In MUP, notes look like c;d;e; and chords like ac;acf;;;;, if only the note changes but not the duration 16g;8.;16;8. etc.). For this reason I built into Frescobaldi a shortcut (by default assigned to Ctrl +; ) that repeats the previous note or chord. A LilyPond construct could be nice, but one of the nice things about the lilypond format is that all music is verbatim there (if you do not write notes using scheme procedures). best regards, Wilbert Berendsen -- Frescobaldi, LilyPond editor for KDE: http://www.frescobaldi.org/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
