Okay, attached is a patch, which implements backslashed figures (and in
general backslashed digits).
The syntax is:
< 6\\ >
The double backslash is required to distinguish it from other modifiers
starting with a backslash (i.e. \+ could otherwise be interpreted as
backslashed digit with a sharp, which wouldn't make sense from a musical
point of view, or as augmented).
The corresponding markup function is \backslashed-digit:
\markup {\backslashed-digit #6 }
Okay to apply?
Cheers,
Reinhold
