OK, I have now made a change (not yet submitted for review) to move the
dot-positioning algorithms into Scheme.

And I have implemented a new default algorithm, which tries to do what
Chris and Werner liked, rather than strictly implementing the Gould
algorithm.

I am also working on a Gould algorithm that is user-selectable.

At any rate, I have some results from Chris's test file.  I have adjusted
the text to contain my assessment of the results.  Please let me know if
you disagree with any of my assessments.

chord-dots-limit = 1 is better in most circumstances.  It is also
consistent with Powell.

chord-dots-limit = 2 is better in a few circumstances.

Feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Carl
