\cueDuringWithClef [was: Re: Artificial-looking clef in a CueVoice?]

[Bernhard Ott]

Hi James,
the following snippet shows how to use \cueDuringWithClef.
The command prints a cue clef at the begin of the cue notes and a 
cancelling clef when finished.
The example also shows the default behavior when it comes to line breaks:

If cue notes start in a new line, the cue clef should not be printed at 
the end of the previous line.

Cue notes going over a line break should print the standard clef on the new
line plus an additional cue clef after the time/key signature.

Furthermore it shows how to use "instrumentCueName"  (I think you can 
remove the old example using silent rests and markup to print the name 
of the cued instrument?)

Sorry for simplicity, eclecticism, etc., - if this is ok for you then I 
can pimp things up a little (right now I'm *really* busy with 
Hoffmann-rehearsals) and proceed with further examples of
\transposedCueDuringWithoutClefs  ;-)

I also attached Reinhold's (completely unchanged) snippet from the list 
which shows how to move the cue clefs "behind bars".

HTH, Cheers,
Bernhard
