Re: beamlets over spacers

[Yuval Harel]

I don't have a global solution, but it's a lot shorter and cleaner if you  
use variables, like this:

oneLBeam = {\set stemLeftBeamCount = #1 }
oneRBeam = {\set stemRightBeamCount = #1 }
{
a16 [ \oneLBeam \oneRBeam r g] s
a[ \oneRBeam g \oneRBeam \oneLBeam r g]
}

You can probably do it completely automatically with some Scheme code, but  
I don't know enough about using Scheme in Lilypond to help here.
