Re: LilyPond application note on-line

drarn: "Please abandon altogether the notion of using note
placement on a stem to indicate accent. All the notes on one stem
are explicitly and unambiguously indicated to be on the same
division of the beat, regardless of any shadings and subtleties
..."

I disagree. Performers need all the help we can get to translate
notation into music, and I want my edition to help as much as is
possible. We don't play music clunk clunk on each beat.

Thanks for the compliment, though.
