shapeNoteStyles

[Sean Reed]

hi,

using the \set shapeNoteStyles and the \aikenHeads \sacredHarpHeads 
give me errors and warnings, even when using the examples from the 
documentation with 2.5.0 and MacOsX 10.3.7.
is this not yet functional?

i get
error: unknown escaped string: `\aikenHeads'

and with the cross:
Interpreting music...
warning: Can't find property type-check for `shapeNoteStyles' 
(translation-type?).
Perhaps you made a typing error?
warning: Doing assignment anyway.

i would like to replace the note head of a few singular notes with a 
cross for a different performance technique (slap etc. on a bass).

btw: is there a standard notation already in place in lilypond for 
"bartok" pizzes? (circle with a half of a line through it). i couldn't 
seem to find it right off.

thanks,
sean
