To follow the same philosophy as in the rest of Lilypond, namely to keep stylistic typesetting decisions separated from the actual music. For example, you may want to typeset the same piece of music using both, say, mensural notation and traditional notation. If you make a command that determines both the musical meaning and the specific layout, that's not possible. /Mats /Mats _______________________________________________ Lilypond-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
