Dear Werner, Thank you so much for your prompt feedback! Much appreciated!

So that caused the flare to stretch. If anything, it gave me an incentive to dig deeper into scheme codes and even take a look at that .scm file, which felt to me as though I was looking into a car engine! I will file an issue when I have some time, and try my hands at preparing a merge request. > In the first line of your attached PDF, however, the hairpin sticks > out into the right margin, which doesn't look correct... Thanks so much for this. In fact, it’s one of my idiosyncratic “soft rules,” in that when spanners continue to the next system, the spanner at the end of the initial (and middle) system(s) should extend a bit to show that it is about to continue. But I see that the LilyPond’s default is to have them terminated at the final barline. Working on your feedback, I actually ended up enhancing what I had made, thus taking a bit of time. But it’s done now and I have updated them all (ordinary and curvy flared hairpins as well as the constante hairpins) on GitHub.
