Then what about the 2nd (middle) line? Stem direction and default shift
could be optional (as it could for any line), but there still needs to
be a default.
And remember, in keeping with PMX/MusiXTeX convention, lines are
numbered from bottom to top. I assume your comment applies to the
lowest line of the 3, which in PMX/MusiXTeX numbering would be No.1
It looks like a default setting could be
Lowest line (#1): Stems down, right shift by .5
Middle (#2): Stems down, no shift
Upper (#3): Stems up, no shift
If I do this at all--and there's no guarantee I will--I'm sure I will
not want to adjust any horizontal shifts automatically based on
interference with other lines...way too much work.
