In the following snippet I've got two slurred notes that are fairly far
apart. This leads to one having a natural stem up and the other down.
Naturally, when those stems are present, LilyPond should move the slur
so that it doesn't collide with the stems, as is shown in the first

In trying to implement the idea of a tag set, I came up with the following:
%
\version "2.19.53"
gender = #'male % manually set to male, female, neutral
#(define test 0)
heshe = \lyricmode {
\tag #'male { he #(set! test 1) }
\tag #'female { she #(if (eqv? test 1) (error "more

Indeed, the tag mechanism does fine at keeping just the pronouns I want.
I'm not trying to solve that pr
I'm typesetting a bunch of chant in modern notation (i.e. stemless
without timing, etc.). These pieces are being pulled from different
sources which have different conventions for a hollow note. In some
cases it's a stemless half-note, in others a whole note, and in still
others a breve (with

If I wish to create a markup command that combines two characters from
different fonts (the normal Roman font of the file and another font
which provides special glyphs) in an overlapping fashion, how would I go
about doing that?
Thus far I have the following which has both characters, but no
\combine works great.
While \translate works, and I can manipulate the offsets via trial and
error, I'm stumped as to the units. I found the documentation for the

companion \translate-scaled, but some idea as to the units
