OK. But the feature centering a note on the middle vowel of a syllable
is an interesting point to implement, not only for gregorian, but for
any lyrics.
It's definitely interesting. Is this used for other styles of music
notation?
Indeed there is \csong in musixtex, but it centers the text
with a zero length, thus leading in lyrics overlapping it notes are to
close to another. It would then be nice to have "hardspaces" protecting
lyrics from overlapping.
But, this is a serious problem for choirs when distinct voices
(distinct staffs and distinct lyrics) have different sizes (frequent
when Tenors do not speak the same lyrics at the same time with the
Sopranos).
I know this since I'm a choir singer and do music typesetting mainly for
our choir. But until now I did not have spacing problems with M-Tx and PMX
in these cases. Maybe the pieces were too simple.
Thus, if I solve the problem for choirs, the gregorian
problem will be solved in the same time.
It's always good to have a general solution.
