Hello, I would like to help solving Issue 1278 (arrow notation for quarter tones).
I understand that it is one of low priority and just an enhancement. I am also aware that the development is currently focused on getting 2.14 out. However, I believe this is a good opportunity for me to contribute since it is something I could reasonably grasp. I have written a patch that might be of interest. It addresses the issue by changing the LilyPond representation of alterations to a pair of integers, with no implied pitch values, as suggested by Hans Aberg (http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg30877.html). I believe this to be at least a concrete starting point. Even if we decide for something different, I could be of assistance, both in discussions and code-work. The help I would need back from more experienced developers would be mainly in: * Discussion of some design decisions; * Some clarifications on regression tests; * Writing convert-ly rules; * Kind reviews of my Scheme code. By the way, with regard to my qualifications, I think it is important to say that I speak C++ natively, but have just learnt enough Lisp/Scheme/Guile to make the mentioned patch work. Also, I am familiar with basic music theory, but everything I know about quarter tones arrow notation comes from the feature request. Finally, I am new to git, but with that I am getting along pretty well. I look forward to hearing from you.
