It is possible have it, by just changing the accidental of the first scale degree: bestenigar = #'((0 . -24/53)(1 . -24/53)(2 . -24/53)(3 . 0)(4 . -24/53)(5 . -48/53)(6 . -24/53)) revnaknuma = #'((0 . -24/53)(1 . -24/53)(2 . 0)(3 . 0)(4 . 0)(5 . -24/53)(6 . -24/53)) Actually, as LilyPond admits this, I considered this feature when writing a more general pitch system originally intended for LilyPond, but removed it, as did not have any examples of its use and it clashes with anything other tradition to write scales. _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
