Is there a way to use the custodes feature of LilyPond, but with modern
glyphs (for example normal notes with the \teeny size), instead of the
funny medieval glyphs? I see in:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/ancient-notation_002d_002dcommon-features#custodes
that four styles are supported (vaticana, medicaea, hufnagel,
mensural), but using any of these in a modern score would not be
appropriate I think.
I had used mensural ones and they worked (i.e. were helpful for
singing), but i'd also like to see "normal" ones supported by LilyPond.
I just grepped through the LilyPond sources. Custodes seem to be handled
by three files: lily/custos.cc , lily/custos-engraver.cc , and
scm/define-grobs.scm . But I do not see how to adapt them to handle other
custode styles. Does anyone have an idea on how to do this? Given that
the code in the C/C++ files does not depend on the particular custode
style chosen, I guess that it is not necessary to modify them, and that
adding another style can be done by defining or adapting a Scheme
function.
Best,
