I can honestly say I've never seen that, and I can't really imagine how
that'd even be played. I agree that that looks like some sort of weird
nesting, which isn't too great.
But if you prefer the latter, just start your music file with
"("=<>(
What is this, Perl?
and you are all set. At one point of time, LilyPond worked like that,
and it wasn't really working all that well.
Might be better to just get used to it, then. Would probably help if
Vim's lilypond highlighting didn't suck.
Incidentally, the empty chord <> is helpful for your example as well:
<>\mp
\notes
\notes
<>\ff
\notes
...
That seems quite useful, yes. AsI'm guessing it basically creates an
empty zero-length chord and attaches stuff to that, how come the
dynamics look like they're attached to the next note instead of before
it? Is it because that would be silly?
