Yikes - sounds hard? I'd have hopes that I could jump into the processor somewhere and get it spitting out note names and co-ordinates…. seems like that information must exist pretty much in the same place at the same time somewhere in the processing chain? To me, it seems like a really good thing for Lilypond to be able to do, as it opens up a bunch of graphical options? > > The list may have other ideas.
