Re: A twelve tone matrix engraver

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hi Caio,

This looks amazing! Thanks for doing this. I was looking for *exactly this* 
about two weeks ago (while using twelve-tone techniques to quickly generate 
material for a theatre underscore sequence).

Two questions:

1. How difficult would it be to add a function which produced a row in 
“traditional format”, i.e., \tonerow #”RI4” would give you [from your example]

    { a’ gs’ c’’ d’’ ds’’ fs’ f’ e’ cs’’ g’ b’ as' }

2. Can your code be extended easily/quickly to support arbitrary pitch sets and 
row counts? For example, I used a 10-tone row drawn from [only] 8 distinct 
pitch classes in a recent piece, and would love to have tools available to help 
with similar efforts in the future.

Thanks!
Kieren.
