Make several special characters with or without backslash "non-special"
Those are defined now in the following manner in ly/declarations-init.ly:
~~~~
"|" = #(make-music 'BarCheck)
"[" = #(make-span-event 'BeamEvent START)
"]" = #(make-span-event 'BeamEvent STOP)
"~" = #(make-music 'TieEvent)
"(" = #(make-span-event 'SlurEvent START)
")" = #(make-span-event 'SlurEvent STOP)
"\\!" = #(make-span-event 'CrescendoEvent STOP)
"\\(" = #(make-span-event 'PhrasingSlurEvent START)
"\\)" = #(make-span-event 'PhrasingSlurEvent STOP)
"\\>" = #(make-span-event 'DecrescendoEvent START)
"\\<" = #(make-span-event 'CrescendoEvent START)
"\\[" = #(make-span-event 'LigatureEvent START)
"\\]" = #(make-span-event 'LigatureEvent STOP)
"\\~" = #(make-music 'PesOrFlexaEvent)
"\\\\" = #(make-music 'VoiceSeparator)
~~~~
This necessitates a few syntactic changes for \tempo and staccatissimo
One motivation for this can be seen in the added regression test.
Also contains commits:
Add regression test for articulation syntax change
Run scripts/auxiliar/update-with-convert-ly.sh
Replace staccatissimo shorthand -| with -\!
The bar line character is used too prominently, and \! seems more appropriate.
Make tempo range `\tempo 20~30` be input as `\tempo 20-30` instead
The use of ~ \(which is normally used for ties\) is quite untypical and
interferes with other syntactical elements. Dash is not particularly
nice here: \tempo remains rather untypical, but at least dash is used
in a lot of other special-case situations as well.
