Those are good questions! I fear the answer is no to all three. The thickness message currently only applies to double bars -- I can't remember why it has that restriction -- I'll add a bar-thickness, or maybe barline-thickness message to my TODO list (it should be very easy to add). I thought you could indent the first line by using the line-mark function: (line-mark (dx 10.0)), but it seems to be a no-op -- this is probably a bug. To mix music-fonts, I suppose you could use with-cmn (the embedded cmn function), but cmn currently assumes it has only one music-font (spacing is already far too complicated -- I wouldn't want to make it even worse!).
I think I need to add a section in the manual about what I was trying to do in cmn -- it really isn't aimed at the calligraphic aspects of a printed score -- I wanted a quick way to see a notelist in standard notation, and in that context it does not matter how pretty it is. Lilypond is probably the way to go if you're aiming at publishable output -- I think its authors want to go even further than Leland Smith's Score in that direction, so they will be motivated to deal with aesthetic issues that I put in my TODO list and intend to get to someday. _______________________________________________ Cmdist mailing list [email protected] http://ccrma-mail.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/cmdist
