Good catch.  I see now that the octave dots in Jianpu are not based on the 
absolute octave of the note but are relative to the current key / key 
signature.  In other words, the Jianpu octave increases between 7 and 1, and 
not between b and c.  

Attached is a new version jianpu5.ly that gets the octave dots right.  Let me 
know if you see anything else that’s not correct.

I have also changed the name of the custom staff context to JianpuStaff to 
match the other staff contexts in LilyPond.  (Although I have a slight 
preference for having it the other way around, consistency is good.)

Thanks for your appreciation!
