now that convinced me. if we want to output angles in degrees, we don't want to switch back and forth neither between degrees and radians, nor between angles and sines. at most one atan (acos) call somewhere.

Just back home, noticing the discussion here. Current patch tries to solve (or better: workaround) the problem in guile. I have some other pending patches _needing_ exact values from coord-rotate. I'd suggest to push it as is (unless some serious defect would be detected) after countdown. So that I can go ahead with the follow up stuff. Opinions? Nevertheless, I'd love to work with degrees, rather than radians. Though, I can't help implementing it as soon as C++ etc is involved. https://codereview.appspot.com/269530043/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
