Re: notation for tongueram

[Stefan Thomas]

Dear Robin,
thanks for Your reply. Your code works fine for me!
There is one last thing, that would make the notation much more comfortable.
When You play tongueram, the note which results from this effect will sound an major seventh lower than the note indicated in the score.
So it would be easier if one could write:
{ \tongueram  { b' a' g'  } }
Can this be done automatically with lilypond?

Try doing it all in Scheme.

tongueram = #(define-music-function (parser location mus) (ly:music?)
 (begin     (set! (ly:music-property mus 'parenthesize) #t)    (set! (ly:music-property mus 'tweaks)      (acons 'style 'triangle (acons 'font-size -3        (ly:music-property mus 'tweaks)))))
 mus)

{ < \tongueram c' b' > }


Cheers,
Robin
