Another aspect when it comes to mensural notation is that it is fairly common to change to shorter note values when doing modern editions of the old manuscripts. See for example some of the pieces in the editions of the music by Thomas Ravenscroft at http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/ravenscroft/modern/
You may want to print both a scholarly edition and a performance edition from the same Lilypond definition of the music. Today it can probably be done using some Scheme hacking, maybe that's good enough. /Mats _______________________________________________ Lilypond-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
