User wants to engrave a chord they describe as "Gm7(b5)/F" and is told to
type
g : m7.5- / f
Note the desired output does not contain a colon or hyphen.
Well, input syntax does not equal desired output.
Using that
suggestion, as in
\new ChordNames { \chordmode { g : m7.5- / f } }
will actually engrave
Gø/F
(where the ø is superscript). User doesn't pursue it further, but this
output does not closely resemble the requested
Gm7(b5)/F
ø is a quite common abbreviation for ‘half-diminished chord’, so this is an
exemplary use case for chordExceptions and perfectly reasonable that Lily uses
it by default. It does not ‘closely resemble the requested Gm7(b5)/F’ visually,
but LilyPond still is a WYSIWYM program, and the two are perfectly equivalent
in meaning.
Best, Simon
