Thanks. I've filed your code away for future use. I'd already coded it the
other way - rearranged the few chords that needed it so that the notes between
which I wanted the slide appeared last in the chord ... construct, and for
the two chords where I needed to indicate a 2nd slide I used

The excellent free Notetab program has available a useful feature to enclose
selected text in a pair of characters - brackets etc.
I have often felt this feature would be useful when using lilypond tool to
put in slurs etc after typing music. Does anyone know of a simple
addon/macro or whatever

Hi,
While comparing the LilyPond gegerated output with the output of a
competitor program, I noticed that the LP outout is much 'heavier'.
See e.g., http://www.squirrel.nl/pub/xfer/lilsib.jpg .
The top line is from LilyPond, the bottom line is from a Sibelius
printout. I think the larger
Ah, that's a bit closer. I have fonts.conf in /usr/local/etc/fonts/
but it tells me that editing it would be pointless, since it will be
overwritten the next time the fontconfig cache is built, and I should
instead use local.conf. I assumed I could just add local.conf to my ~/
