How can I add a new chord to Lilypond's "chordmode" vocabulary?
A minor augmented triad is composed of a root, a minor third, and
an augmented fifth. On lead sheets, I would like the markup to
be something like:
markup {
\text "m"
\super "aug"
}
How would I reference this chord in chordmode? Perhaps
f:m.5+
or
f:maug
would be convenient.
I have accomplished some basic chord *naming* alterations,
following an example snippet in the documentation:
- - -
chExceptionMusic = {
<c ees ges bes>1-\markup {
\text "m"
\super { "7" \musicglyph #"accidentals.flat" "5" }
}
<c e g b d'>1-\markup {
\super "maj9"
}
}
% Convert music to list and prepend to existing exceptions.
chExceptions = #( append
( sequential-music-to-chord-exceptions chExceptionMusic #t)
ignatzekExceptions)
- - -
But adding a new chord (and a new chordmode identifier for it)
appears to be a whole different ball of wax.
Can someone who has done this before offer some insight on how
they did it?
Thank you!
Jim
