Maybe also contact people who have worked on the subect:

as an editor for Bohlen-Pierce scales").

>
> Nine notes above A should be another A.

> There are accidentals: A#, C#, F#, and H#. If this setup can support the
> enharmonic accidentals B-flat, D-flat, G-flat, and J-flat, that would be
> nice, but not absolutely required. Thus, the full chromatic version of the
> scale is A A# B C C# D E F F# G H H# J (13 notes).
>
> The scale should be displayed on a 6-line staff with a treble (G) clef on
> the 2nd line. I have already gotten this part working. I would also like
> the
> 3rd staff line to be dashed. That would be awesome.

> Eventually I'd like each chromatic note to output a different MIDI pitch,
