New issue 2812 by [email protected]: Renaming to distinguish keySignature
from KeySignature
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2812
There is a property 'keySignature' of each Staff that helps determine what
accidentals to print before notes, and at the start of each line.
We set it usually with \key d\major , but can also
\set Staff.keySignature = #`(( 4 . ,FLAT) ( 5 . ,FLAT))
Then there is a graphical object 'KeySignature' with its own properties
concerning how to print the key signature, its spacing, which style of
glyphs, etc.
\override Staff.KeySignature #'glyph-name-alist =
#alteration-mensural-glyph-name-alist
Reading some user feedback on the latest manual section NR 1.1.3
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2012-09/msg00036.html>
I am thinking that it would be wise to rename the property of the Staff,
the thing we set with \key b\minor, to simply "key"
\set Staff.key = #`(( 4 . ,FLAT) ( 5 . ,FLAT))
