Re: Irrational time signature and tuplets

[Malte Meyn]

This can be done in LilyPond without using LaTeX:

\version "2.19.6"

{
  \override Staff.TimeSignature.stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
  \override Staff.TimeSignature.text =
  \markup \override #'(baseline-skip . 0) \center-column \number {
    \concat {
      "8+2"
      \tiny "√"
      \hspace #-0.2
      \override #'(offset . -25)
      \override #'(thickness . 1.6)
      \underline "5"
    }
    "8"
  }
  c'1
  \once \override TupletNumber.text =
  \markup \concat {
    "1:1+"
    \tiny "√"
    \hspace #-0.15
    \override #'(offset . -16)
    \override #'(thickness . 1.6)
    \underline "5"
  }
  \tuplet 1/1 {
    c'4 4 4 4
  }
}
