Thank you for your message. I am hoping to reproduce the arrow notation used by 
the composer,
rather than substituting a different notational convention (which this composer 
has employed in other pieces).
The fact that he implies a difference between a slightly lowered F & a slightly 
raised E makes me think that he
is seeking to inflect the note rather than achieving an identifiable 
quartertone. Thank you also for alerting me to the
resources you mentioned which I had not found.

One can use Helmholtz-Ellis notation in E53 using OpenLilyLib, SMuFL, and 
Graham Breed's regular.ly <http://regular.ly/>.
