Good Day/Night
Here are assorted notes on what sorts of things I can't do in lilypond,
although I need to.
Whithout these, I possibly can't finish that solfegio book project, at least
with good quality. And I'm only half way through emacs lisp programming
info manual, so scheme tweaking is still a kinda wizardry for me.
So, if this is possible to do somehow, gimme directions please :)
1. dashed ties ( NOT slurs)
2. \property stemStyle = "transparent" ( or likewise)
3. Is it possible to combine voltas? say in \repeat volta 3 {} first and
second endings are the same, and could be printed in combined "1.2." volta
4. Reference manual says that you can have two voices in Rhythmic staff, and
yes, you can, only second voice doesn't appear in paper output :)
5. arrow heads on slurs (was TODO item, perhaps still is)
6. dinamics, when given as "b4 \ppp" appears strictly under note, which is good,
but sometimes (usual thing at melody start) I need it appear a bit
earlier, to precede the note. And, e.g. there is only clef etc before note
7. \slurnormal b8( \slurdotted ( )a )g gives me a parse error :(
8. Is where a way to say something similar to \times 1/1 { bla \times 1/1 \{ }
blah \} --- I need collating? brackets(collision, crossings)
9. I saw that breathing sign is implemented, but in solfegio i see two variants,
other one similar to \rtoe, but when I use \rtoe it gets uncorrectly
positioned (sure it is!), may be there is a simple workaround ? Uncorrectly
I mean I can't get it above barline, _inbetween_ notes etc.
Thanks in advance

P.S. in nr. 8, imagine upper bracket ending on the note at which bottom bracket
is started...
P.S. Well, I skipped flattering and disclaimers, but all said above still
doesn't mean that I don't like or don't use lilypond, well, i do it with joy
and rather intensivly
