I would like to ask you not to change this. In typesetting genuine Gregorian
chant, the annotation field is always used to indicate the mode of the chant
and the ending of the psalm tone. The Illuminare tool not to behave like this
would make it impossible to typeset any antiphon correctly – I use it
exclusively for this purpose.
I hope you would like to reconsider.
Best,
Steven

Subject: Re: [Gregorio-users] A funny bug in illuminare
This is a side effect of Illuminare having been based on a project whose
specifications for the annotation field were that it would be roman numerals
followed by a possible ending letter from a to g. The Roman numerals were to
be small caps, and the ending letter if any was to be lower case. Thus, if the
annotation ends with a letter from a to g, right now that letter will be lower
case. I will change it later today so that in the public facing site it will
just do straight small caps.
Thanks,
Benjamin Bloomfield
