I don't agree.
As a (classical) violin player I use tremolos far more often than chords.
I suppose it's a matter of different usage (classical music vs.
popular music).
And the syntax using colons is really useful and far more convenient
than the \repeat tremolo one.
Imagine 8 4/4 mesures of a succession of 4th notes with 16th tremolos.
Current syntax (using colons):
c4:16 d4: e: f: |
g: a: b: c: | % etc.
with \repeat tremolo:
\repeat tremolo 4 c16 \repeat tremolo 4 d16
\repeat tremolo 4 e16 \repeat tremolo 4 f16 |
\repeat tremolo 4 g16 \repeat tremolo 4 a16
\repeat tremolo 4 b16 \repeat tremolo 4 c16 | % etc.
So please, don't change current tremolo easiness.
Cheers,
Xavier
