Expanding bowed arpeggios

[Olivier Biot]

Hi all,

Sometimes arpeggios are written as chords to avoid repetitive and lengthy arpeggio expansions in a written score.

However, is there a way in LilyPond to transform chords into bowed arpeggio expansions, as illustrated in the example below (first bar = input, 2nd bar = automatically generated expansion based on input)?

% BEGIN
\version "2.16.1"

\score {
  \new Staff {
    \relative c, {
      \key c \major
      \time 4/4
      \clef "bass"
      \set fingeringOrientations = #'(right)

      <c-0 g'-0 e'-1 c'-2>2-\p^\markup{input} <c g' f'-2 d'-4>2 |
      c16-0-\p^\markup{output} ( g'-0 e'-1 c'-2 )  c ( e, g, c,)    c ( g' f'-2 d'-4 )  d ( f, g, c,)

    }
  }
}
% END

Best regards,

Olivier
