Greetings, and my apologies for having left this mail unanswered for so long, I have added your suggestion to our tracker as http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=810 However, technically I should not have done so because you didn't provide us with an example of such a notation. Can you please send an image of what you're referring to? You may also want to install the latest LilyPond version (if you're using Windows, we do have a native version so using cygwin is not required -- nor recommended). We recently have implemented new features that allow to define new stem-flags much more easily. > Long term, I'd like to see all of the "special" guitar notation > techniques (bends, dives, slash heads on tab staffs, etc.) implemented > in some form or another.
