RE: Three-note tremolo in 4/4

Hi Lukas, Thanks so much for this further refinement! You're right that it isn't really a hack (though that term was not at all meant as a criticsm!) and more of a workaround to make LilyPond do something that's entirely legitimate from a musical point of view. Ideally, the tremolo function

Re: why Kieren is a \relative evangelist

Hello Mogens, In fact the octaves in Lilypond are rather simple, as they more or less follow standard Helmholtz notation. So c (lilypond) = c(helmholtz), c'(L) = c'(H), c''(L) = c''(H), ... And for lower pitches you just need to substitute C(H) by c,(L), then CC(H) = C,(H) = c,,(L),

Re: Openlilylib status

Hi Lilyponders, Andrew, I feel your pain. I offered to help Urs a number of times but he was way out of my league with the coding side of things and I was virtually useless to help. I use the Edition Engraver and Scholarly sporadically. What I think is that Urs was way ahead of most of us, and
